Hello my faithful readers.
The past weeks here have been chaotic on my part. I think about writing every day, but I just can't find the time to sit myself down and write =(
My brothers' wedding was finally over this weekend, but then on Monday I was offered a job and am now working 8 hours a day. Since my husband just has gone out to work on his boat, I am now pracitcally a single mum; bringing/picking up the children from kindergarten and housekeeping. I also need to find time to sleep in between, so yeah, days are long. I wish I had more energy to cope, but sadly I have to work with what I've got!
The good news is that the childrens book is now ready for publishing, so all I need now is a printer to send it out there. Crossing my fingers that it will be out by the end of this week! I'm really pleased with it, and I have also got a new idea for another childrens book!
Hope you're all live and kicking, and that your'e not too busy to enjoy life!

Curiosity killed the cat
To get to know my handful of readers out there, I thought I'd launch one new question each week. I'll try to keep it going on Thursdays, and to direct the questions towards my interests. So here is the first question, just leave the answer in the commentfield underneath.
I'd love to know if you have any favourite authors?
My favourite author is the Norwegian writer Karin Fossum. There is only one of her books I haven't read, but it's on my to - do list before the year has past. It's her latest book, and I just haven't gotten round to it yet.
She has written three novels, and a bunch of crime novels. Also her first book was a collection of her poetry. I specialized in her three novels a few years ago, having read through "Jonas Eckel" and "The night of November 4th" three times, and "The house of the insane" five times. I love the way she writes, and especially when she writes crime. What is so exceptional is that she forces the reader to sympathize with the murderer, rather than the victim and their families. Every time I embark on one of her new books, I always dread having to care about pedophiles, rapists and murderers. She really gets into their minds and you understand (without excusing) why they do what they do.
So this is why Karin Fossum is my favorite author.
