Junior
Gijs vd L
Na een decennium docentschap (Aardrijkskunde), volgde Gijs in 2018 een lang gekoesterde droom: een autobiografische roman schrijven over de eerste jaren van een betekenisvolle vriend(schap), spelend in zijn studententijd (2002 – 2004). Geleidelijk werd duidelijk dat hij zou blijven schrijven, bij mooi weer en het liefst in de buitenlucht, zoals op de Franse camping. Hiernaast is hij geboeid door de mens en “het bestaan”, waarin hij zich intussen ook uitgebreid verdiept heeft. In het schrijven van levensverhalen van anderen komen beide samen. Hij gelooft dat velen eigenlijk een mooi boek verdienen.
