I suspect that most writers' research history will land them in jail for a very long tlme.

This sign has always been hanging on my wall. A book is created in its revisions. Do not expect to write straight through it and end up with a best seller, like in the movies. Get the story in place and then start improving. Which includes murdering 'your darlings'.

First MG novel ready for query, and the next on its way.

Of all my pictures on the wall, this is my favourite. It contains every book ever written, and every novel I will write myself. That's magic.

The RADIO became my main source of stories in my childhood. The children's hour, with its well-known jingle, still rings magic in my ears. Most likely anyone from my generation would agree.

My muse, either wondering how my book ends, or when I'll get around to making dinner.

In this spot most of my best ideas were born. A little world of it's own, with absolutely nothing existing outside these walls. Just me floating around in space on the nerdiest toilet in the galaxy. :)

And so my mum's final journey has started. We have still not tested for dementia, but we know. Short term memory is fading away, as is the concept of time. It will be a though time losing her twice!

Guess I'll have to take it down. Sighing! One whole year until next time! :(

I've only been on Bluesky for a couple of weeks, but still haven't seen one single troll in the comment sections. Do you eat them???

Just in case Santa do not give me what I want this year, I sent a revenge letter - just to get the last word!

Ended my first novel in Manila and it felt like saying goodbye to good friends. Started planning a sequel just to comfort myself!

Not the most beautiful of paintings, but the only painting my mum ever painted. So a treassure for sure, still!

Rice porridge is an important tradition in Norwegian Chrismas. Not only do we eat it ourselves (and the one who finds the hidden white almond in it wins a price), but we put a bowl out with porridge for the goblins to behave during Christmas (gives all the local cats and foxes diarrhea)!

What do you guys eat for Christmas? Here in Norway it may vary a bit, but with MY family it has allways been rib steak - which has to be crisby on the top.
