I feel bad for not having written anything in a while but I've spent as much time as possible, while trying not to lose my sanity, on revising Project 1. It has been done and the third draft is complete. It is the draft my beta readers will read so I'm starting to send those … Continue reading Non-linear narrative [Choice of Games] & Project 1 update!
We celebrate Christmas on the 24th in Sweden but since many of my readers are from America I chose to publish this post a day after. How was your Christmas celebration? Did you enjoy having a post published here every day? It's been a bit more than a year since I started this website to … Continue reading XXIV: Christmas
Photograph of Earth taken from Voyager 1 1990 From this distant vantage point, the Earth might not seem of any particular interest. But for us, it's different. Consider again that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever … Continue reading XVI: Quote of the day: Carl Sagan [& Space]
I feel bad since it's technically the 13th right now - but it is still the 12th in some time zones soooo - here I go! It'll be something quick since I've been away all day (literally) since morning. Just went home for 40 min to eat before going to see The Hobbit. I enjoyed it more … Continue reading XII: Mastering Swedish
I wanted to spend this day, or at least an hour of it, reading blogs and posts but I, once again, realized I lacked the time. Why? Because I spent the day browsing the Christmas Market at Tivoli in Copenhagen, Denmark with my lovely girlfriend. Pictures follow: - F H Hakansson

I won't recommend other people for the award, as usual, but you're welcome to nominate yourself in the comments, or send me a message … Continue reading Beautiful Blogger Award
I spent the weekend baking, in case you were wondering where I went. Now, when I'm back home, I feel absolutely exhausted. Never realized how tiring it is to be a proud baker in a baker's hat! Have you done your holiday baking yet? (probably not, I'm really early on this one, but are you … Continue reading Back from baking!
Those of you who follow me on Twitter (@fhhakansson) know I went to Hamburg during Halloween. I haven't said much about it so I'd like to post some pictures from the trip. I'll probably use most of them for posts later on but it doesn't heart to add a small gallery. I stayed at Heikotel … Continue reading Pictures from Hamburg
Today is my birthday which means I have a perfectly good reason to sit back, relax, and do nothing for 24h. But I won't - because I have things to do. After reading a bit of Atlas Shrugged (what an incredible novel) I went back to editing Project 1. Now, that I have done so, I … Continue reading Today is my birthday.
I have been back for almost two weeks and only recently began to edit Project 1 (my second novel). In so many ways this is, and probably always will be, the most important text I have written because, as most of you know, I wrote the first sentence of it almost eight years ago when … Continue reading When writing becomes haunting
