In the enchanting world of words, few can claim to have nurtured a lifelong love affair with writing as passionately as Sandra Lakebrink. The founder of Mijnboekenik.nl, Sandra’s journey began at the tender age of four, when she first fell in love with reading and writing. This early fascination with storytelling has now evolved into a dedicated mission to help others bring their literary dreams to life.

Sandra’s path to becoming a beacon for aspiring writers was unconventional and deeply personal. During a vacation, she rekindled her passion for writing, inspired by workshops organized by a shaman fifteen years ago. These encounters ignited a creative spark that never truly dimmed. Determined to write her own books, Sandra’s journey took a significant turn in 2017 when she started working with a writing coach. Her determination and unique vision led her to publish five books, refusing to conform to traditional publishing norms. This independent spirit culminated in the establishment of her own publishing house two years ago.

Mijnboekenik.nl is more than just a publishing service; it is a comprehensive support system for writers, especially women. Sandra’s approach is holistic, guiding authors from the initial spark of an idea through to the intricacies of marketing their finished work. Unlike typical writing coaches who focus solely on manuscript development, Sandra offers a full spectrum of services. She assists with the writing process, navigates the complexities of publication, and devises effective marketing strategies, ensuring her clients’ books reach their intended audience.

One of Sandra’s proudest achievements is her book on the Briard dog breed, a labor of love inspired by her own beloved pet. This book, translated into multiple languages including English and German, has reached readers across several countries. Her active involvement in Facebook groups with thousands of members has also helped in promoting her work and connecting with a broader audience.

Sandra’s latest project, the “Familie Kip” series, is a testament to her creative versatility and commitment to education. Inspired by her love for storytelling and her experiences with her chickens, this series aims to stimulate language development in young children. Each book in the series is designed to be both educational and entertaining, addressing themes relevant to preschoolers. The series is complemented by merchandise like coloring books and memory games, further enriching the reading experience.

Sandra’s journey is deeply rooted in personal experiences and a genuine desire to make a difference. Born in Amsterdam in 1965 and having lived in various parts of the Netherlands, her life story is one of resilience and adaptation. Her experiences have shaped her unique perspective and approach to writing and mentoring.

Mijnboekenik.nl stands out in the crowded field of writing and publishing services because of Sandra’s commitment to personalized, empathetic guidance. She understands that writing a book is a deeply personal journey and provides the support needed to transform a writer’s vision into reality. Her mission is clear: to empower women to tell their stories and fill their bookshelves with their own works.
