About me
I was born in Strakonice and graduated from the Czech Technical University in Prague. In my professional life I prepare cost estimates for construction projects. There is a good balance in every life, which is why I try to relax in my spare time by writing. Of course, I'm also a big reader myself and I love to be carried away by the narrative of diverse books. I am constantly learning new things. I believe that learning follows us throughout our lives.

Betty, the little mouse

Extract from the book:
Soon they reached a little pond, where they met a frog called Dave.
He didn‘t hesitate for long and joined his new friends in search for a new home.
The three of them were walking along and started to sing yet another catchy song.
“ We‘re three friends who only just met.
This new friendship will never end.”
The manuscript in English for the picture book about the adventures of a little mouse is completed. I am looking for an opportunity to get my book published. Please contact me below.
