Hi!

I'm a Norwegian writer based in London at the moment, doing my MA in screenwriting. As a storyteller I'm always on the lookout for good stories and inspiration. Hope to find some of that here.

My taste in horror is broad, though somewhat picky. I tend to like horror which either incorporated sci-fi, otherworldly elements or fear of the unknown (Lovecraft). But I won't say no to a good ol' ghost story!

I'm finishing up my graphic novel which'll be out pretty soon. Weeks, I hope. It's about the fear of the unknown set in both the present and in 1349 in Norway. If you wanna check it out you can see my signature. Any support is really motivational, so thanks to everyone who bothers!

Haha lägg till ett "A" efter "svensk" så ska det nog gå bra. (Svenska*)
(Put an "A" after "svensk" and you're fine.)
Jeg snakker ikke godt norsk... heh :p

Sweet! Never read The Dead, but heard of it. Looks awesome. Grant & Fabry is a good combo.

What do you mean by "producing in Belfast"? Is Berserker Comics located there?

I think they are local. Maybe I got that wrong. I got in contact with one of them after they exhibited at a local poster competition so I may have jumped to conclusions.

I wish I lived in Norge. Someday... perhaps after I retire. My grandparents emigrated to the U.S. from the Trondheim area.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Haute Tension is a modern great. One of the few original ideas in the slasher genre.
