Today is the release day of my new historical novel Syndafall! 🎉🎉🎉 It's a romantic story about life in 18th century rural Sweden, it's the first book in a series, and I just love it so much. This is my first time working with a big publisher, and it feels amazing to have come all this way. ❤️

Happy release day to me! My third novel is out in the world, and unfortunately for the English speakers, it's another one in Swedish - Förledd, a romantic contemporary fantasy filled with queer characters and Scandinavian folklore. Cover by my dear friend Camilla Boring. 🎉🎉🎉

Tired but happy after a great day at the book fair Bohusläns bokmässa yesterday! Sold a bunch of books, bought a bunch of books 🙈, and had lots of good chats with visitors and colleagues.

Today is the release day of Skogsland, my first ever published short story that has been translated from English to Swedish. It was originally published as Woodland, in Eerie River Publishing's anthology "The Old Ways Vol. 2". Skogsland is published by Kraxa förlag, and I'm really proud of it. 🖤

Did my first ever author panel last night, together with my illustrator and friend Camilla at the Lidköping City Library. Had loads of fun and sold a few books as well!

Finished this one last night. Laura Purcell never disappoints! This was gothic and gory and beautifully written, just as expected.

Time to sum up 2024! Four short stories and two novels - I'm very proud of all of them and looking forward to the things I have lined up in 2025. 🖤

My first horror novel Silver, out in Swedish in 2024, now has a cover! And it's just as gloomy and eerie as the book. 🖤

My top reads this year!

I've seen people share awards eligibility posts, so I thought I'd do one of my own. This year I've published a mini collection and eight short stories. Five of the stories are free to read online.
