Hello there! :) How were your holidays? Was it all hectic or did you have some time to relax and do other things you normally don’t do along the year?

Mine were absolutely hectic, and I did almost nothing of what I planned (i.e. reading and advanced house cleaning!). But I did connect with closest family and friends, which was good for the mind and soul.

Before I head any further on this little letter, I’d like to THANK YOU.

In May 2014 I started an adventure on the self-publishing playground and have been absolutely fortunate to come across wonderful people – such as you – who have given me support in many ways. You took of your precious time in provide feedback, supporting my work with reviews and blogposts and nonetheless, purchasing it!

So, what is worth… Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! :D \m/

Now that we all said goodbye to 2014 , let’s follow through 2015 with tons of creativity, inspiration, prosperity, achievement and realization. If you’re a reader, I hope you enjoy yourself and enhance your wisdom with great books. If you’re an author, I hope you are the one providing those great books to our community – we thank you for that! :)

As for me, I am glad to announce I am publishing an illustrated miniseries in 3 episodes, called “A Cold-Hearted Phoenix” in a few months. Soon I will tell more about the project, so stay tuned for this one!

I have just published as well “No Escapes VOL. 1 – Melancholic Beauty in Norwegian Landscapes” , which is a reference art book for painters and photographers. It is not a table book, as some may think, but because of the way it is built, it can be enjoyed by pretty much anyone who likes landscapes, arts and photography in general. As the title suggests, the book is melancholic, moody and somewhat dark. The second volume is coming somewhere on the second semester.


See you soon, have a great time!

Thank you, for the friendship, for the readership and for the support! This I must say before anything else!

After a December where I worked to the bone, and a couple of relaxing and artsy weeks off for holidays, I am back and welcome you into 2016. Okay, I’m a bit late… But who cares?

First the new year thing: I don’t make promises or resolutions. I do some strategic planning and try to accomplish most of it along the year. Then in the end of the year or beginning of a new, I evaluate what I have accomplished or failed to. That simple.

Now, my thoughts about random things from 2015:

My best read: Drum rolls…. For… Frankenstein, please! I had watched the movie by the time it was released, and read the story in different versions. I read the original/integral English version this time… Boy how I cried reading that book… My lips twitched and tears flooded my bed, when I read The Wretched telling his story. Oh my.

Nicest TV series: Would you be surprised if I told you it was The Walking Dead? No? I wouldn’t either! (Now, I think The Transporter may win this year!)

In the bookish world: I have been blessed enough to come across amazing people. Great authors and readers who are a joy to talk to and trade ideas with. From the book communities I have a profile on, like GoodReads, BookLikes and Library Thing, GoodReads is for me the best place to make it happen. So kudos to GR!

By the way, that LibraryThing… is really a thing! I thought I was antisocial to some extent… until… I came across LibraryThing! :P Does any author/reader get that thing? I have the impression it was created by librarians, for librarians – to catalogue books and that’s IT! :) Hm… Okay, you can run a giveaway there, too.

Last, but not least… I will be promoting other authors on my GR blog. Because the world is an amazing huge place, I will be promoting fellow authors on my GR blog ;) So stay tuned!

New website! TragicBooks.com - Almost forgot, http://tragicbooks.com is now online! Finally, a brand new website for you, the reader!
