I love throwing spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks. Even though I know it’s not an effective way of approaching promotion, or anything (really) because there’s bound to be a lot of mess, and I’m the one that has to clean up afterward.

That’s why I write this article: so you can watch me clean instead of doing it yourself, AND perhaps save some money doing it.

I love to experiment, and this is the longest experiment I have ever attempted; from June 1 to December 31, 2022.

Who am I?

I am a Norwegian author, writing in the cozy mystery genre; stories where the mystery is in focus, not the PG-rated stuff, sprinkled with a dose of humor.

Currently, I am working on my debut novel in Norway with a publisher, but I have published four short books in the Viking P.I. series, and the fifth is coming later in 2022.

I am proud of my quirky little series, and the people reading them also seem to like it, but they don’t sell very well.

This I will use to my advantage going into the experiment.
