INTERVIEW AT THE BERLIN LITERATURE FESTIVAL

Last year I was in Berlin, during the Literaturfestival Berlin - and it turned out to be one of the best weeks of the year. I love this festival and the people that work so hard to make it an awesome event.
During the festival Birte Hendricks talked to some writers about their job (the series is called 'Voices' and other interviews feature illustrators and authors like Patrick Ness, Jon Klassen and Kaatje Vermeire). These interviews came online just now. You'll find mine below.
Thanks, Birte. Good - and tough - questions...

Berlin: Literature Festival

One of the nicest, biggest and most impressive literature festivals in the world is the annual Literaturfestival in Berlin. It started this week. There will be many, many readings by many, many authors.
I was part of it in 2006 and 2011, and, I'm really happy about to say - this year again! I'll be present from the 12th til the 19th of September. I'll talk about my books THIRTEEN RUNNING DEER (DERTIEN RENNENDE HERTJES, in German issued as LENA UND DAS GEHEIMNIS DER BLAUEN HIRSCHE, with Mattias De Leeuw, Gerstenberg) and THE DOG THAT NINO DIDN'T HAVE (HET HONDJE DAT NINO NIET HAD, in German: DER HUND DEN NINO NICHT HATTE, with Anton Van Hertbruggen, Bohem Verlag, both books translated by Rolf Erdorf).
Take a look at the impressive list of authors that will be in Berlin. Amongst them: Peter Brown, Frank Cottrell Boyce, Jandy Nelson, David Almond, Sjoerd Kuyper and Kaatje Vermeire!
