About Nicky
psychologist, poet, writer and people-watcher
Psychologist by day, writer by night. I finished my debut novel “But The World Should Be Ours” in january, for which I am currently on the hunt for an agent. I am working on a second novel as well as a work of poetry in collaboration with photographer Mays Al-Korany. I write articles about (sport)psychology for a. o. NLcoach. I also make animated videos for schools and businesses, love doodling, bouldering and sailing. Wherever I go, you’ll never find me without a book, a pen and a noteblock.
