SYMBOLION

Symbolion and a journey full of stories

In truth, I didn’t start by writing—I started by meditating. Writing and meditation are like old, inseparable friends to me. Everything I write grows from my meditations and dreams.

During meditation, stories come to me in the form of images, symbols, and parables. I experience them, and slowly I begin to understand them. These stories often bring me answers to the questions I ask myself. They hold such deep meaning and inner resonance that I feel compelled to share them. I want others to find their way to them—to be touched by these stories, just as I was.

Can you imagine a library that holds all the knowledge in the universe—yet contains only one book, written just for you? Would you dare to search for the meaning of life in a small boat on a calm sea, where only your thoughts are stormy—and no shore in sight? Does God exist? And if so, where should we look for Him? Is life just a game? And if it is, what can we win? Is this the real world—or only its shadow?

Maybe it doesn’t matter so much where we’re going. But rather who we’ll be—and who we become—by the time we get there.

Lucid dreams give my stories wings

Have you ever had a lucid dream? I have—and they take me to unfamiliar worlds, where things are rarely what they seem. Their true meaning lies beneath the surface—and that’s exactly what fascinates me.

From these mysterious realms, I brought back fragments that became my novel. And so Symbolion was born—a parallel world where the line between dream and reality begins to blur.

How can we ever be sure which of those worlds is real? Maybe both. Maybe neither. And it’s exactly that mystery that won’t let me stop searching for answers.

In the end, everything is about energy

My partner has been diagnosed with OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder). During one of the most difficult times—when we were both running out of strength—I imagined a city where people like us lived. But their essence was made of energy.

That’s what the characters in my novel are like. Their life force isn’t infinite: they can gain it on their journey—but they can also lose it. And if they lose it completely, they dissolve.

Sometimes I feel like these characters have a life of their own—even when I’m not writing about them. As if I’ve only given them permission to exist. They can do almost anything. Except one thing: they can never give up. Because I’m their creator—and that’s the one rule I won’t let them break.
Maybe that’s where the magic of creating truly lies.

I love telling stories

I don’t know if I’m more of a storyteller or a listener of other realities. But I know that stories find me. Telling them is like opening doors to other worlds. Some lead to questions, others to answers. But they always take me somewhere.

Are you drawn to mystery, sci-fi, and parallel worlds? Then perhaps these stories are meant for you. I wrote this book for readers who don’t just listen—but also perceive what lies between the lines.

Don’t be afraid to dive into the unknown. Stories told in symbols are like stones hiding a golden egg—a hidden gift waiting to be discovered. Exploring the true nature of reality through stories and metaphors is an adventure that might just change the way you see the world—because you never know what’s waiting at the end.

It’s like walking through an unfamiliar dreamscape. You know you’ll wake up soon, but everything you find along the way—you get to take with you.

As Greta, one of the characters in the novel, says:

„It is so simple to reach black and white conclusions. The truth. People brag so much about that. What do you actually know about the truth? When you uncover one part, you start claiming to know everything. But there will be a deeper layer beneath it. And another and another beneath that, until you get to the very essence. And all of these are the truth. Maybe you will never know them all. And me neither.“

Many answers come to us in dreams. Great discoveries and groundbreaking ideas are often born in places untouched by daylight. If you believe that knowledge is a living, breathing organism—fluid, boundless, and open to new horizons—then the world becomes a workshop of constant creation. Nothing is fixed. Nothing is final. And there’s always something more to discover.

In the novel, you’ll know you’ve entered the City when you realize you’ll never see a starry sky there. Only the parallel reality of Symbolion will let you lift your gaze—and see the stars again.

This is a story for everyone who never stopped asking questions.
For those who haven’t lost the urge to explore—and the courage to step into the unknown.
And for those who still believe that beyond the edge of the known, we may find what we’ve been looking for all along.
For those who never stopped looking up at the stars.
