    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 # 416112001 – The job interview

      Mackenzie looked at the condensation on the windows. You’re sure, this is the place? he asked the cab driver.

      Lexington 270, the driver briefly answered.

      Seems to be deserted.

      Are you going in there or do you want me to drop you elsewhere?

      Mackenzie hesitated. I’ll check it out. You just wait here, alright?

      You got to pay me first.

      Mackenzie sighed. Threw a twenty dollar bill upon the front seat and said: Wait here. A little nervous about the upcoming interview and feeling uncomfortable with this unexpected situation, he checked the GPS signal on his Smartphone. It says Lexington 270. Right place and the right time. Well, ten minutes late; that’s close enough. So why is this place deserted?

      He gazed at the depressing neighborhood. The seven story tall building was the last construction in the almost untilled, empty street.

      Reluctant he walked through the revolving door. First thing he noticed was the warm moist air inside. He pulled off his coat and walked on, further into the huge, empty hall. The entire lobby was nothing more than a large open space. No seats, no furniture; just plain open space. "The add should have mentioned only candidates without agoraphobia are welcomed", he grinned. Hastily Mackenzie walked up to the reception as if he would be able to catch up
