Hi!

Now I want to do something different. Until now, I was always writing in Turkish. But as far as I can understand, what I'm doing doesn't attract the attention of people who read Turkish. And I'm like, 'Why am I limited to a few million people?' I thought.

So, are there any English readers who will understand the cultural references that I writing? I wouldn't know until I tried. Although I am not sure how many of those cultural references will be used but still, isn't it important to try?

For this reason, if there are things that you don't understand in what I write, is there always a problem? In this way, I also understand that my page was not opened by accident and that there is someone interested.

There will be articles about everything. Of course, I will write in the Turkish part from time to time; I can even make additions from the articles I wrote there by cheating a little. So in short, the block has no specific concept. There is what you are looking for.

Maybe you don't know, but Turkey is a little different. It is a region believed to have a predominantly Muslim population trying to live like Europeans. Frankly, I think we have more atheists in recent years.

In addition, the part that can be considered radically Muslim is a separate theater. While they want the founding rules of Islam to be valid, they do not want to give up on European possibilities and technology.

Mormons are definitely more honest in my view (only in this respect, of course).

Anyways...

The problem is that I am not going to write much here about the political and sociological situations in my country. Unless it's Irish Gaelic, of course, or without elections...

Let's start writing about me...

I am an unemployed ethnomusicologist and French Horn player.

I am sure that the question of how an ethnomusicologist can remain unemployed is wrong in your mind. Especially in such a period as Turkey, a university was opened on every corner...

Well... if you are in opposition to the country's politics, this is a very easy situation.

The reason why I couldn't continue the French Horn business is something else entirely.

I'm at an age where I should stop blaming others for things they failed to do and irreversibly lost. For this reason, these are not the things I want to say or whine about. But I know this much, with my education and perspective, if I had been any European, I would have had a brilliant academic career.

Especially considering that I graduated from the state university (which is in the ivy league for Turkey) with a degree...

(I felt compelled to take a deep breath here.)

We have a saying around here: Geography is your destiny. It certainly is...

I started teaching and worked as a music teacher (at schools) and piano teacher (at courses) for a long time due to the disappointment of my symphonic orchestra career, which could not continue, and the disappointment of my academic career, which was mixed with dreams before it could start. But this was no ordinary music teaching. As usual, I had to push my limits and worked with mentally retarded children, about whom nothing was known at the time.

I brought together systems from foreign sources with the research training taught by being an ethnomusicologist and developed a music education system suitable for special children's schools in Turkey.

And then I got married...

I have a son, a dog, and eight cats.

Oh, by the way, ten of my novels have been published...

My irresistible desire to write somehow manifested itself in novels.

The release of my first novel made quite a splash. And yes, if I was in Europe or America, you would probably watch my novels movies... (We said geography is destiny, right?)

But I was not disappointed. Or maybe I stopped by at the time, but now I'm just laughing. It has always been the most satisfying thing for me to communicate with people, tell my adventures, share my stories, pass on my academic knowledge.

Dear human beings, I hope the turmoil on this page will not bore you and we will have a lot of fun together...

See you with new articles...
