Born 6.10.1948
I studied Cand. Ling. Merc. at the Copenhagen Business School and spent many years teaching high school students. Further studies in creative writing and in 2013 I finished my film scriptwriter education.
My film script BUDAPEST, about a high school study tour getting completely out of control, is in the steady hands of a producer.
Together with a Shakespeare geek and a Danish filmproducer I am busy developing a digital teaching platform for the Danish Folkeskole.

My "writing life"
I am a columnist having my own column in a local paper, where I also write book reviews.
My first novel, FJORD, is a modern saga about love running wild. Several years ago I went to Hald Hovedgård, The Danish Writers and Translators Center with my notes and started writing.
FJORD has a poetic tone and a touch of Nordic blues while unfolding a number of existential themes in the wild Norwegian landscape. A mysterious and creepy place. And tourists are not wanted.
My second novel in the planned trilogy is coming up. The working title is: the Cousin Hierarchy. A main theme here is lack of love and the scary consequences.
