For this reason, she began writing books in the evenings. Her first published book was "Not in love with the drummer". Sandy has always been a dreamer, who dreams most of all to reach as many people as possible with her words. This makes her writing fun and it gives her a means to express her creativity. This book shows the readers, her wishes, dreams, and her view on how the world and the people should be. Kindness, caring, not giving up, helping each other, and not judging a book by the cover, stands central in this story. Inspired by her own experiences, combined what she wants to express to the world, she wrote this fantasy story. She hopes you'll enjoy the book!
