About Me

About Me

From the moment I wake up, my love for action-adventure thrillers fills my thoughts. Each day, I eagerly listen to audiobooks, immersing myself in thrilling worlds and daring characters. In my twenties, I wrote a manuscript for a Western that featured a fierce female lead, seeking violent retribution against evil men. Fueled by determination to prove naysayers wrong, I submitted it to Norway's largest publisher of paperback books. Unfortunately, their response was cold and dismissive - "please don't ever submit a manuscript to us again". Though disheartened, I refused to let their rejection stifle my passion and drive. It took years for me to gather the courage to write again, but this time I vowed to self-publish and avoid facing brutal rejection.

Years ago, I made a life-changing decision to move to a tropical country. My journey led me to The Bahamas - a paradise of warm climate, crystal clear oceans and sandy beaches. While many of my fellow countrymen relish snowy winters, I find solace in palm trees swaying in the gentle breeze. A simple life with a relaxed pace is what I crave, which is why living on a remote island with my husband, our dog and our five cats feels like a dream come true. And now, as I continue pursuing my long-time dream of writing action-adventure novels with strong female leads, each day feels like an adventure waiting to unfold.
