From rags to…eh…more rags….
I won’t go so far to tell you that I’m one of those examples of the classical “The American Dream” – from rags to riches – but it’s still a fact that nothing in my youth prepared me for being an author. A Belgian author. A Flemish author. A Belgian/Flemish author published in Holland, Belgium, France, Canada, the US and next year in Italy.

Hi Jo, blush blush: that’s the result of your comment :-). There are ebook-versions of “Baudelaire’s Revenge” (but because Pegasus Books only bought the North American rights, over here in Belgium or elsewhere not in the US and Canada, we can’t access the e-book version, so I can’t give you the link, but if you do, please send it to me 🙂 so I can help others 🙂 ! ). “Dangerous Obsessions” is available in e-book on amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/Dangerous-Obsessions-Bob-Van-Laerhoven-ebook/dp/B00VU96036/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1430486560&sr=1-2-fkmr0&keywords=Bob+Van+Laerhoven%3A+e-books
Hope this helps a bit. If not, send me a message to my very outlandish e-mail address 🙂 🙂 : bob.van.laerhoven@telenet.be
