Beyond the page

A life of hard work.
A mind that wanders.

B.J. Starink is a Dutch author and road builder. His writing life began in an unusually difficult period of isolation and grew into a body of work spanning horror, psychological thrillers, fantasy, poetry, and children’s books.

For younger readers, the Boogeyman Beater Club offers a very different doorway: free stories and personalised adventures built around courage and imagination.
