The rogue planet

I'm currently re- editing Exodus, and thought I'd give you a little taste. For those of you who've read it, this will be familiar. For those who haven't, I'll post little snippets here now and then.

So, without any further ado, here we go!

 

The Rogue Planet

Years ago, far too many to remember, the planet had been teeming with life. Its inhabitants had called it Lifebringer, and thousands of species had carved out their existence there. It was a finely-tuned system, where every little being...

Re- editing Exodus

Well, I guess it's about time for an update (and I definitely need to post a little more frequently here...)

First off, since publishing Valerian's Company electronically, a few things have happened. VC is now avaliable also in paper. It's a short book, just 68 pages, but if you don't read ebooks, and you like dark fantasy (fantasy setting, with lots of blood and gore, and questionable morality!), you can pick it up from amazon here.

Secondly, I published a sequel to The Tunnel, called The Trib...

Valerian's Company, a dark fantasy

VALERIAN'S COMPANY, a dark fantasy novella is now avaliable at smashwords! It's a tale of dark deeds and ruthless justice, and not for the fant- hearted... Don't say I didn't warn you! ;-)

(If you only read paper, you'll have to wait, as the process takes a little longer. But it's coming in paper as well!)

Here's the cover!

Here's the blurb:

In an age of kingdoms and city states constantly waging war upon each other, Valerian's Company is among the...

New titles coming up this July!

I just thought I'd write a short post, just to let you all know that I'll be releasing two new titles this July. First one out will be a dark fantasy novella (possibly a novelette, depending on final edit), name to be disclosed ASAP :-)   I'm pretty excited about that one, since it'll be my first public venture into the fantasy genre- and I'm a BIG fan of fantasy!

So, soon after my first fantasy title is released, I'm also releasing The Tribe, a short story set in the same...

The Tunnel now avaliable at Smashwords.com

The Tunnel is now avaliable for purchase in all e-book formats from Smashwords.com.

Smashwords also distributes to Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Diesel, Apple iBookstore and all the other major retailers as well, so eventually it will be avaliable wherever you buy your e-books. I'll leave the story here for a couple more days though, untill I get it up at Amazon.com. So read it for free while you can, and if you like it, you may consider purchasing your own copy in support of my writing, or perhaps...

The Tunnel, and an update

Wow, nearly two months since my last post! Moving is now done, we're settling into the house, and I'm finally able to get some writing done again. Still a lot to do to get the house in order, but it's great to be back in front of the computer, typing out a few of all those ideas that's been churning around since early January.

Today I have a nice treat for you guys who happen to be visiting this site (here you go, Mom!) - a brand new short story I decided to call The Tunnel. The story was...

My writing plans for 2012

I’m usually not one for making public New Year’s Resolutions and the like, and I guess that quite a few people who know me was quite surprised to see me announce that I had written and published a book. Well, now you know. A few weeks ago I posted some ideas on what I’ll be working on after Exodus. I think this is a good time to expand a little on that, to give you some ideas on what to expect from me in 2012 (so you won’t be too surprised next time around).

Right now I’m in the middle of a...

Paperback now avaliable, and review contest

So, there it is, Exodus is now avaliable in both ebook and paperback. You can find them both here.

I'm hoping to get some reviews as soon as possible, so here's what I will do.

All who post a review on Amazon, will enter a draw for a free Kindle 6" eReader! The...

Ebooks: Why I held off for so long, and why I love them so much today

I love books. Books are, in my opinion, one of the most important creations of humanity, perhaps even the most important, and books contain the power of the combined knowledge of mankind.

Of course, not all books are classics, able to change history and define civilization, but the sum of all books are what we are all about. Literary masterpieces, technical manuals, biographies of great people, books that describe us as human beings, books that makes us dream of the future, books written...
