About the author

I'm too sexy for this photo.EvilNickname.org is the personal website of William Groenendijk, a code monkey who lives in Amersfoort, The Netherlands. He was born on January 14, 1980 and uses his Evil Nickname quite a lot on the internet. If you want to get in touch, you can mail him at evilnickname [at] evilnickname [dot] org.

When he’s not sitting behind a computer, he’s probably doing something else, like reading a book, playing volleyball, seeing a band or pursuing one of things on his list of 100 things. He plans to have that list finished sometime before he kicks the bucket. Occasionally he takes a photo worth sharing with the world.

He also gets a kick out of writing pieces about himself in the third person.

About the background-image
