My name is Conny, I live in Belgium, and I'm a bit of a late starter when it comes to writing. I did a creative writing course with the Open University (UK) a few years back, because I wanted to write short stories. There was a section of poetry on the course, which I was a bit apprehensive about, but they have managed to convert me. It's now my main mode of writing. I also fell in love with flash fiction. I'm not sure why I'm so drawn to the shorter form. I think it's the impact, the immediacy, that still somehow lingers. I love the suggestion of more going on between the lines.
