    Eduard Meinema

    "I love writing into the dark; like to be surprised by the characters scavenging through my own stories. Just before things are getting familiar; when I think, or at least believe, to know where a new story is going to, I give it a twist and make my readers (and myself) wonder... how the hell is this going to end?"WORDS and VISIONEduard Meinema is writer and visual artist. He writes in an exciting and humorous style. Creates intense, passionate and mysterious stories filled with unexpected twists which will seduce anyone to finish reading at full speed. Beside his full length novels, Eduard is fond of writing Flash Fiction and Short Stories. All of these 'Twisted Tales' are published as stand alone eBooks in the series 'Flash & Shorts'.Meinema's works of art include so called 'lyric abstract' paintings. Expressionistic works made of Acrylics and Sand. But also Pop-art, including characters known as 'Skredches' (Yes! There is a blog:check out the official site to find blog feeds!!) and...fish paintings. As Meinema says: "Ah! I love fish. Love to see them. Love to keep them. Breed them, paint them, eat them... (ouch, sorry for that...). Oh yeah, I love fish in each and every way."Meinema, born 1963 (Delft, The Netherlands) is former CEO of a temp office, specialized in contracting technicians. Together with his wife he has managed a gallery for contemporary art and jewelry for more than ten years. Nowadays Meinema is fulltime writer and visual artist.

      FLASH AND SHORTS # 416051301 – A new beginning

      Are you the father? the nurse asked.

      No, I told you before; I’m the brother. I mean her brother… from the mother; not the baby. Fred Osborn was going out of his mind. Why did it have to take so long?

      So you are the uncle?

      "No…Yes, the baby’s unc…Oh, for heaven’s sake woman. Hurry up will you? Go and get the baby. What kind of hospital is this…? Losing a baby…?

      I’m sure there’s no reason to panic Mister Osborn. We’ve never lost a baby. I guess one of the nurses is working with your niece.

      Fred? Jessica called for her brother. What’s keeping you so long?

      I’ll be right there sis, he answered. Then he continued speaking, soft but angry, to the nurse: Find her!

      There you are! Jessica smiled. She was sitting in her bed. Uncle Fred! she teased her brother.

      Hello Sweetie, he kissed her on her forehead. The nurses told me all went well. You have delivered a beautiful, healthy baby girl.

      Yes, Jessica smiled proud. Did you see her?

      Fred tried to neglect her question. Have you decided on a name yet?

      With twinkling eyes she said: Yes…I will name her Freddie, after you!

      Silly girl.

      She took his hand. "Did you see her? Why didn’t you bring her with you? I want to hold her in my arms. I only saw her a few
