The new magazine entitled HUMANITY+ came through my letterbox a few days ago. It is published as a form of metabooklet for Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Humanity+ is a magazine filled with essays, chronicles, and conspiracies about human augmentation, science, transhumanism, capitalism, and more. All of which relate to the main themes and central subjects … Continue reading Humanity+
The interview with me was published yesterday in Ystads Allehands. It is, unfortunately, in Swedish so you can't read it. Luckily I'll provide you with summarising bullet points. The headlines is: "His dreams become science fiction." My burning interest for writing took me to the University of Birmingham to get my BA in English with Creative … Continue reading My interview
As mentioned in yesterday's post: this was a University assignment that I chose to publish without making any additional editing. Styles change and I know this piece does not reflect my writing as it is now. Still - it functioned as a step in the giant ladder I'm climbing to become an author - and … Continue reading Prose piece – first chapter of an untitled novel
All the poetry written for the University, which was not on my laptop, has been published now. I have more poems, some written for non-University purposes and a lot of shorter ones on my laptop which I can't power on, but none of them will be published. Yet. Instead I'll try to publish new material … Continue reading Poetry done – Prose to come!
Damien The Jews are since long back in Zion, and along with the Holy Roman Empire, They witnessed the comet in the sky, As it approached and divided mankind, Turning them against each other. Savage beasts in human form roamed the land, killing the unborn and feeding on the dead. This was a battle that … Continue reading Damien

Sibling love Two more days until Christmas and the never ending torrent of customers is overwhelming But I’m not afraid, no, I have my sister. Strange people stumble in and ask for the most obscure things, But all I do is smile victoriously and reply: “Ask my sister” and I walk away. “Five years ago … Continue reading Sibling Love
Received my copy of Deus Ex: human revolution today. Will be fun to play once I'm done with Fallout: New Vegas! Reading the novel Deus Ex: Icarus Effect, by James Swallow, at the moment. The Deus Ex franchise is amazing and I can't wait to dive back into a world of conspiracies! - F H … Continue reading Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Keeping to the same theme as yesterday: This is a poem I wrote about Sweden. Again, this was the result of another exercise about home, and the different ways we can show our sense of "home" in poetry. Sweden There is really only one thing I can say to honour my frozen country, and it … Continue reading Sweden
Seeing as I just got back from my first interview (as a want-to-be author) by a local newspaper from where I grew up, Ystad, I thought I would start by publishing a poem about Ystad. My Hometown From a cloudy vision it will erupt, For my childhood memories are faint, yet - I am drawn and … Continue reading Hometown Sonnet
