• MY BEST WRITING MEMORY

    WRITING MEMORIES. It’s Day 8 of the #InstaWrimo challenge, the #preptober daily writing activity to get ready for #NaNoWriMo next month, and today we’re going to talk about writing memories. My best writing memory takes me back to October 2018. My little sidekick, Jonulfr, had been given a school project…

  • MY FAVOURITE VILLAIN

    FAVOURITE VILLAIN is the prompt for #InstaWrimo today and this was a simple choice for me.  I though of some of the greatest villains out there, and Heath Ledger’s Joker, Bill Skarsgård’s Pennywise, Gollum and Darth Wader to mention but a few, are all great. Then we have the female…

  • MEET EEWIL GRIMM

    MEET EEWIL, the youngest son of the Grim Reaper, Nefarious Grimm, and his wife Malicious. He’s a cheeky little prankster who loves having fun and making people laugh. In Eewil Grimm & the Guardian of Halloween, Eewil is faced with a mysttery and something of a dilemma. His father is…

  • ADVENTURE!

    ADVENTURE! I wonder if there is a nerd alive who can hear the word adventure, and not think of the iconic scene where Bilbo runs out of the Shire to catch up with Gandalf and the dwarves shouting “I’m going on an adventure!” at the top of his lungs. No…

  • SEVEN WEEKS ONLINE

    I KNOW I said I was going to stop these posts as I started the monthly milestones, but I guess I was a tad too excited. It feels right, somehow, to keep counting up to 1000. Provided I ever get there. I’ve done social media promotions for many years, and…

  • MY FIRST STORY

    MY FIRST STORY is the topic for the third day of #InstaWrimo (see prompts below), and I’m surprised to say I actually do remember my first “real” story.   I was nine or ten at the time, and I had been told stories about Gudmundstjärn, a woodland homestead in Indal, Sweden. It…

  • PREPTOBER: THE WORKING TITLE

    PREPTOBER, is a month of activities to prepare for National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) in November. Activities during preptober can include things like prepping your novel, and doing daily writing tasks to get into the habit of writing something every day. I’ve decided to give the #InstaWrimo challenge a go,…

  • HI, I’M EVALENA AND LINNEA

    HI, I’M EVALENA, and I write non-fictional books, blogs and articles on a range of topics from arts and crafts to teaching and writing. Last year, my alter ego Lïnnéa stepped out of the box I normally keep her in, and began to dust off the work I tend to…

  • ROLL ON OCTOBER

    GOODBYE SEPTEMBER! Six weeks into this adventure, we’re still going forward and getting the wheels in motion. I’ve posted four work in progress chapters and a few blogposts. I’ve been semi active on social media and promoted my posts and drafts on twitter, Instagram and facebook. So far, twitter has…

  • FENRIR’S CUBBIES:
    3) Happy New Year? (1POV)

    EDDA Oh, shit! It was going to take more than a clear head to get me out of this predicament. I swear, Vanadís – if this is all your doing, I’ll never forgive you! I couldn’t see him, but I knew his scent. He was holding me so tight I couldn’t move,…
