F A Q
Where is your accent from?
I was born and raised in the
Netherlands, studied
English Literature at
Leiden University (also in the Netherlands), studied in the US for 3 months and had lots of
American friends, hence the weird accent. I'm definitely not
Irish or
Canadian, I promise!
Where do you live?
I live in
London and have been here for
3.5 years now.
Where do you work?
I'm a
Social Media Producer at
Penguin Random House UK.
How did you get into publishing?
I did publishing work experience on 3 different occasions, did a lot of networking and learned everything I know about social media from creating and running this channel for
7 years. (P.s. You don't necessarily have to study Publishing or
English to get a job in publishing!).
Can you review my book?
I can't guarantee that I will, but if you'd like to get in touch, please take a look at my review policy on the 'About' page of my channel.
What do you use to film?
I have a
Canon 60D with a Tokina 11-16 lens (which is super useful if you want to sit close to your camera and still get a wide shot) and I use a window as my natural lighting. I edit my videos in
Final Cut X.
