Snippet Wednesday: Fiona and her daughter

This is a cut piece from The Shattered Ward. It is unedited, since it didnt fit the scene. I might do something with it later. Maybe not. A tentiative knock on the door made her shook off the longing. ” Come in!” The door opened and her youngest daughter ran inside. Fiona sighed when she […]

Four things makes a post

I had a crappy week, mainly because a lot of uncertainty about my day job.  But yesterday I was told my contract will be renewed. Yay! I also got other good news. 1. I got feedback on the Cauldron Bound from Kari. She liked it. Yay! She had some good feedback, though, even if there […]

Snippet Wednesday: Meeting the imp

This is from Angel among Demons, a book I wrote awhile ago. A comment by Paul Weimer on twitter reminded me of this scene. So, this one is for you, Paul.  It is unedited, so it is a bit rough.  The being that stood there looked like a winged lizard walking on two legs. A […]

Free read: Snow in Ignisa

I originally wrote this last year, but decided to repost it since it felt fitting considering parts of the US is colder that Mars right now. This is a little something that I began writing a couple of weeks ago.  I decided that since it had snowed in so many odd places, it might be […]

It is all about plateaus

So Exile has been out for 4 months now, roughly. I have no idea of how much it has sold in numbers since I am still waiting for the numbers to be loaded to Publit ( I am annoyed, but I am more annoyed at Kobo and Overdrive than Publit), but I have noticed a […]

Snippet: Part One from the Shattered Ward

I originally had another post planned for today, but I decided to move until later this week. Today didn’t feel like the right day to discuss sales. So instead I am posting the first 500 words, or so, of the Shattered Ward.   I hope you enjoy it!   Xenia opened the lid to the small […]

Busy, busy.

Right now, I am revising the first part of The Shattered Ward so that I can send it to be betaread later this week. I am happy with how the opening scene turned out. It was good in the first draft, it is better now, and it will be even better after Thirzah has betaread […]

Can you hear the doors closing?

It is Dec 31st. The last day on 2014.  Tomorrow it is Jan 1st 2015 and the VAT rules in Europe are different. As a result a lot of small businesses are closing down their  e-stores today. Even the non European ones are  planning to raise their prices to cover VAT. I have already adjusted […]

2014 was a productive year

I just sat down and counted exactly how much I wrote this year. And it was a lot. On twitter I said it was 60 000 words. The Cauldron Bound: 17700 words Exile 7000 words Frosthold: ~20 000 words The Shattered ward: 13 000 words ( so far) Total: 57 700 words. Granted, the word […]

Adjusting the prices

For a number of reasons, I have been thinking about pricing lately. Part of it is the changed EU VAT rules from January 2015, part of it is because of Swedish tax rules.  I also want to earn some money on my books. I have also realised during the last two months or so that […]
