Traumwind - Martin Spernau, author, illustrator and software developer

Thanks Jeff, for pointing it out. I'd never have known ;)

No honestly, I seldom think of myself that way. But I guess you can call someone how has written this and that an author, who has done some illustrations and cover designs an illustrator, and who writes software now and then a software developer.

Maybe that's the reason I don't have that high paying job I maybe should have. I don't sell myself any higher than I think of myself. And maybe, just maybe I think of myself more lowly than I should.

But then I know what an asshole I can be if I don't. I can be arrogant, and very a general pain-in-the-ass. I'd rather be humble, likeable and not so well paid, thank you.

And sometimes it is very usefull to be underestimated by others. Especially if those others ore arrogant pain-in-the-asses. Makes them crash even harder after they dealt with me.
