SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY WRITING
This page does not cover items such as my review on the environmental and analytical chemistry of cyanide. It drew
attention all over the world, but that was because of its scientific and technological content,
the result of my analytical skills.
For about five years, I worked as a journalist for a magazine called Elements, published
by the international engineering company ARCADIS. I also wrote for one of its competitors,
Tebodin, and as an associate editor for the international newsletter of The Geochemical Society,
which is based in the US.
I have interviewed people all over the world, often by e-mail or telephone, but also on location.
I enjoy talking with them about what drives them, what challenges they face, as well as what
they have in common with other people and what sets them apart. I like hearing about their projects,
and the awards they have won, either personally or for their projects.
In 2010, I briefly wrote about social media for a Dutch business, and I also wrote for
Dutch environmental chemists for about five years.
Occasionally, I publish in local media. See for instance:
My public writing career started with my primary school's newspaper. I achieved my first
national publication when I was 16 years old and my first paid contribution when I was 22.
In those days, I wrote about about topics like my cat, my mother (who passed away in 1975),
G.B. Shaw, and the environment.
I published a series of letters to the editor in a Dutch national newspaper -
De Volkskrant - about violence against women, and child abuse but also on other topics
between 1985 and 1990. In 1993, I took two evening courses at the Netherlands School for
Journalism in Utrecht.
I also write a form of verbal jazz (flash fiction, such as the booklet FCQ) and I currently have three novels up my sleeve.
