Biographie de Dietmar Dressel
The time comes when the age of 65 is finally within reach, one thinks with relief, into retirement. So far so good! It doesn't take long before you celebrate your 66th birthday with your family and realize with increasing impatience that such a day, with its 24 hours, can be quite long. Family, grandchildren, lazing around, traveling and the occasional botanical experimentation while gardening are no longer enough to give the day an interesting face, what to do? You can't avoid this question if you don't want to doze off on the couch and in front of the television for the rest of your life.
Why, I asked myself, rethink the many thoughts and ideas that have accumulated in the course of a lifetime and, if possible, process them in writing. No sooner have such thoughts been thought through, than the necessary initiative develops, a literature course is needed, the head thinks without thinking about the body, it is already 66 years old. It was these three years of study that showed me that creative writing doesn't have to remain a dark secret if you try to reveal it.
And something else helped me a lot to tackle the writing seriously, the spiritual listening to oneself in order to seek conversations with the consciousness and its inner voice. Many of my friends and readers ask me, how do you manage to write so many books in such a short time? To be honest, I can't even answer this seemingly simple question myself. I think it's my inner voice that wants to argue with me all the time.
And so the thoughts flow, as if guided by magic, almost by themselves into the keyboard of my computer.
