New Website Design

You may have noticed that it has gone ‘silent’ on our Website. This is partly because we have no new Photos to present, and partly because Martin is currently working on an ‘all new’ design for our Website.

So please be patient, because hopefully in a few weeks our new Website will be online.

For those who are really curious, our new Logo looks something like this:

Ohne Thema - Ein Erzählband (S. A. Mahr)

Book read by Martin:

ohne_thema_ein_erzaehlband
Back-cover description:
Ohne Thema - aber nicht themenlos will dieser Erzählband sein. Jeder Text erzählt seine Geschichte, und das mitunter auf ganz eigene Art und Weise. Ob nun der Fokus auf einen für sich stehenden Moment einer Beziehung gerichtet ist oder ob wir den elterlichen Streit mit den Augen eines jungen Mädchens beobachten, von persönlichen Schicksalen wird ebenso erzählt wie von fantastischen Geschöpfen, die plötzlich Realität werden, oder vom Wind, der am Hang eines Berges Ungeheuerliches entdeckt.

Neben einer Weihnachtsgeschichte finden sich als besondere Schmankerln zudem eine auf Wienerisch erzählte Geschichte und ein Fließtext, der zu berichten weiß, dass die Welt ein Dorf ist - oder ist letztlich doch das Dorf unsere Welt?

Number of pages:

2012 (S. A. Mahr)

November 2012

Martin’s comment:
Due to lack of time and the intention to re-design our website (more focus on our photos), I actually had decided to put my book-reviews (if you can call them that) on hold. But I have to make one exception.

As you might know, we are part of an illustrious group of friends, who out of the dark started a project called "Arbeitstitel KreaBunt" (Working Title KreaBunt), to organize a creative event, with the intention to brighten up November. One of these friends (S. A. Mahr) is an author who has just published his first collection of short stories.

This collection shows how versatile S. A. Mahr is: from fantasy to relationship drama, from texts that make you laugh out loud to stories that leave you with something to think about. If you want to contact S. A. Mahr to buy this book, or want to read more of his texts, I gladly refer to his Blog.

Arbeitstitel KreaBunt says "Thank You!"

Arbeitstitel KreaBunt would like to thank all visitors and contributors for making the Event „Farbe tanken im November - Reloaded” another success!
