Just a quick note to let you know that The Cauldron Bound is available at Kobo. And before you ask, the tech issues wasn’t solved, I simply uploaded it directly. Which is something I have been thinking about for a long time, to be honest. If the sales are bad I want to know, so […]
Since The Cauldron Bound is scheduled for release in early July, I decided to write this post. 1 It was originally a historical fantasy short story that I wrote for an an submission call. The story was too long, so I didn’t send it in. 2. When I wrote the first draft of the novella […]
I had a great time at Archipelacon, even if I kept looking around for Kari. I went to a nice mix of panels from a panel about the Hugos ( which was very interesting, actually), to a talk about Viking Age Åland, to one about diversity in YA, to LGBT, to cross fiction writing. I […]
I didn’t use to write short stories that often but the last year I have found them a nice way to slip some writing in between rounds of edits. It also gives me a chance of publish more stories. I have pondered what the right approach is, if I should submit to markets and […]

I am writing The Orphan Girl, and I am close to the end. Right now the draft is at 2600 words, and I have one or two scenes left. So it is safe to say that it will be longer than 3000 words, since each scene has been 600-800 words so far. I am glad […]
