ROLL ON JANUARY
MILESTONES GOODBYE DECEMBER! I’ve been online for four months now to forge partnerships, find potential readers and engage in some kind of intellectual debate and social interaction with other writers. Covid style, of course. As December, and with it this…
ROLL ON DECEMBER
MILESTONES GOODBYE NOVEMBER! Three months into this creative writing adventure I’m beginning to think the Writing Community, particularly on twitter, is a pretty awesome place to call home. So, now that November is over it’s time for the monthly recap.…
ROLL ON NOVEMBER
GOODBYE OCTOBER! Two months into this adventure I’m touched and blown away by the kind and supportive reception I’ve received in the online WritingCommunity. I posted more work in progress (wip) chapters and daily InstaWrimo/ preptober blogposts in October. I…
TWO MONTHS TODAY
TWO MONTHS ago, I posted my first tentative hello on social media having been awol for a year. And, oh my days what a ride it has been! No word of a lie – I’m a little blown away and I…
1000 FOLLOWERS?
SOCIAL MEDIA is like a weird alternate reality. I love it and it fascinates me, but every time I think I know something about it, something happens to turn that knowledge on its head. One of these things that seem…
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…
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…
SIX WEEKS ONLINE
WEEK SIX is over and September is nearly at an end. I’ve managed to write fiction, poetry and a few articles, I’ve received my first reader comments, and my Ulfrheim drafts have been read in four different countries. In the last…

#1 Horse’s HeartTHIS MAY very well turn out to be my shortest blog post ever, but I just had to hop in here and show you this: I have no idea how this system works, but apparently my Horse’s Heart #wip is…
FIVE WEEKS ONLINE
FIVE WEEKS online after a year of radio silence is actually rather overwhelming. I’m so glad there are nifty little scheduling solutions you can use to plan and space out your engagement in advance. Anyway, this is another celebrate every…
FOUR WEEKS ONLINE
WEEK 4, whistled past like an autumn storm and I’m actually quite surprised it’s time to do one of these already. But missing out on an opportunity to celebrate? No chance! So, what’s the reason we’re throwing a party today?…
THREE WEEKS ONLINE
WEEK 3, is over and my love affair with the twitter #WritingCommunity continues. Seriously blown away by the kindness, support and generally helpful vibes from writers and authors with platforms ranging from a few hundred to millions of followers. I won’t…
ROLL ON SEPTEMBER
GOODBYE AUGUST, we had more fun that I had expected. I know it took me a long time to get there, but I did it. I finally braved it and began posting #wip chapters and promoting them and my blog…
TWO WEEKS ONLINE
DANG, my second week of trying to promote this place online is over, and I’ve got so many new friends in the #WritingCommunity. I try to thank people who follow, retweet and comment, but I’m already way behind. Who’d’ve thunk it,…
#1 FENRIR’S CUBBIES
CELEBRATING every milestone… Today that milestone came courtesy of Wattpad, where my Fenrir’s Cubbies #wip for some reason has ended up as #1 in #scandinavian. Wot? I don’t know how Wattpad rankings work, but it doesn’t really matter. I’m basking…
MY FIRST WEEK ONLINE
SOMETIMES, patting yourself on the back and celebrating even the smallest of milestones along the path can be very liberating. And uplifting. When I decided to throw caution to the wind and share my fictional writing with the world, I…
