Till Burwächter was born in hell (South of the Lüneburger Heide) in 1975. He struggled through school, visited university and ... failed. He became a freelance writer, mainly writing for Germany's Metal Hammer magazine (where he also conducts very entertaining video interviews with people like Tom Angelripper and Kai Hansen). His unfailing sense of humor brought him to writing his first own book: »JGTHM - Juhr Gait Tu Hewi Mettäl« (Iron Pages Publishing), a HM satire. The follow-up »Schmerztöter« (also Iron Pages Publishing) was even more funny. His trilogy ended with »Sorry, aber so isses!« (Iron Pages Publishing), a politically uncorrect view on life in general (and all its trappings).
