Hey @TheRock, big fan here asking for permission to use your name.
Writing my 2nd novel (techno-thriller - in Dutch - I'm from Belgium); girl wakes up from a coma with a ripped body (part of the plot) & mutters: "Why does my body look like that of The fucking Rock?!"
Can I? 🙏
Light pool reading:
#theblackswan: how we underestimate the impact of extreme events & keep acting as if everything can be standardized (Gauss curves, anyone?). We truly are blind for the randomness around us. Brilliant book.
#slaughterhouse-five: catching up with the classics...

I'm always reading a fiction & non-fiction book in parallel (1 helps me sleep, 1 helps me wake up). Currently reading Wolff's "Fire and Fury" about the Trump White House; honestly don't know where to categorize this. Horror & Mystery are definitely there.
