Discover Maniwolf’s Short Stories and Poems!
Maniwolf sings the song of the unspeakable beauty, sadness and fragility of our earthly existence.
This Website is a work in progress, like everything in this world, our lives, your life, my life, my stories. I always thought my stories needed to be perfect before being published. That’s why I never published. Finally, instead of producing a perfect website, I decided to just go ahead with the material that’s there now, partly raw and unfinished. It is continuously being worked on, changing like the untamed waves of the sea, growing like the virgin rain forest. Please don’t hold me to what you saw yesterday or see today, because it may not be the same tomorrow….
Especially the translations of the stories originally created in German and Spanish are still drafts. They have been translated by DeepL.com, and while that platform is amazing, its translations do come with inevitable flaws especially regarding creative writing material. Eventually I will edit and fine-tune those translations and ultimately have them reviewed by my favorite language company, USAtranslations.com (as indicated at the bottom of each story).
The website is being published in English for now, German and Spanish versions will follow when ready, Then you may select your language here: English German Spanish.
Is Maniwolf’s work encouraging, uplifting? Probably not. For some readers it may come across as quite sad and painful. Rather than only superficially entertaining you, his creations come with an underlying psychological slant. If you just want to be receptive…
Maniwolf hopes to evoke and stimulate a wide range of instincts, feelings and thoughts in you. This approach has grown from his experience and insight that confronting the darker sides of our existence may lead us to a new zest for life.
Maniwolf’s stories have developed from his childhood scenes, deep-feeling psychotherapy experiences, day and night dreams, love entanglements, travel & road trip adventures and an exuberant imagination….
