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 […]

Always ask the pro, take two

In December, I asked Laura Anne to tweak my blurb.  I was so happy with the result that I hired her to edit The Cauldron Bound.  We discussed if I should hire her for the content edits or line edits.  In the end we agreed that it was best if I hired her to do […]

Always ask the pro

Ten days ago or so, I asked Laura Anne Gilman if she could crit Exile’s blurb for me. She generously agreed to do so for free.   Today I got the blurb back, and I am very happy that I asked her.  The blurb is much better now.   The old version: As long as Gwyneth […]

Exile is free over the holidays

As I mentioned in my last post, I am offering Exile as a free read on Kobo and Ibooks for the next two weeks.   As I also mentioned,  this is the last time it will be free for the foreseeable future. I hope you enjoy reading about  Gwyneth and her adventures.   I have plans for […]

Rambling about pricing

Exile has had  really lousy sales on Ibooks. I have sold a whopping 3 copies.  Yeah. So in an attempt to boost the sales I have decided to make Exile free over the holidays on Ibooks to boost the sales. I mean, I cannot sell fewer books.  I think I will ask someone in the […]

10 things I am planning to do this Christmas

I originally wrote another post, but  I deleted it since it was whiny.  So you get this instead.  Entirely random. 1,  Write. ( Yes,  I have decided to lug my laptop to my brother’s place.) 2.  Read ( I have an overflowing TBR list and my autobuy authors keep on writing new books. Which is […]

Wrapping up 2014

  When I write this, it is Early December. The air finally has a bite of winter, even if it hasn’t arrived yet. In fact, the roses were budding this weekend. Whoever says climate change isn’t happening is welcome to take a trip to my mum’s garden. Anyway. That is not what this post is […]
