There are several. One is my great great great grandad, His origin is mysterious. He had black hair, dark brown eyes, said litte about his background. Except for him, my ancestors are mainly Nordic-looking. Who was this man?

Right now I am working on a series of independent novels about strong women in history, who have been named Daughters of Freya. The first is about the Viking woman Freydis Eiriksdatter who lived in Greenland around 1000 years ago and who sailed to Vinland. The book is now publishet in English. The other is about the Norwegian-Irish girl Thoron, who lived in the 13th century. It will be translated into English early next year. Now I write about the third Freya-daughter, Driva, who lives in the time of the Black Death.

Just go for it. Don´t wait for the perfect time, because it may never come. And - relax, have fun!
And remember writing is mostly about hard work.

I've never had writers block. But if I did, I'd probably go for a walk or do something completely different for a while. Then I would try to write again, and not care what I write is good or not. I think the writers block has to do with being too busy writing perfectly.
