Wow, the German title of my novel, CREATURE, sounds so much more sinister in German. Of course, everything sounds a tad more menacing in German. I say this from experience. One of my grandfather’s was German and if he ever wanted to give me a little jolt of fear, he’s whip out a German line or two. Or sing. Dear God, the singing!
I think I’ve made grandpa one proud angel in Himmel with the German translation of Die Kreatur!
Now, I’m not sure how many of my Hellions speak and/or read German, but if you’re one of them, I hope you enjoy my first translation. And hey, it already has 2 sternebewertungens! That’s more sternebewertungens than I ever thought I’d have.

LOL. My mom was of German descent. Whenever us kids made her really angry she’d swear at us in German and we’d be very ashamed. It wasn’t until we were in high school that we figured out all she was saying was “Thunder weather tomorrow.”
Thanks for the update on Creature.

Thunder weather tomorrow! Now that’s funny. Goes to show, it’s not always what you say , but how you say it.
One of my grandfather’s was German–I love this!
Yet another thing that makes you awesome. 🙂
I read the book “Die Kreatur” recently and I am absolutely thrilled! I hope more of your books will be translated 🙂 Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland!
Thank you so much! Yes, I believe Creature is the first of many more to come.
That would be great 🙂
