So, this summer's coolest event was Eurocon 2011 in Stockholm and while there I got the honor of doing the GoH-interview with Elizabeth Bear (matociquala). It's on national television right now! And on the 'net for those of you that don't live in Sweden. :)

I haven't had the guts to watch it yet. I really had to brace myself when I watched the 10-minute long ( Read more... )

 I've been all about the book these last few days and yesterday was no exception.

I got a poster for the book signing I'm going to do! It's rather pretty, if I do say so myself, and it gave me a fit of nerves. It's so close now, the release date, I can feel it breathing down my neck.

And before that I have all these little deadlines that take up ( Read more... )

A little more than a week ago I went with Sweetest and some friends to a live role playing game in Göteborg, set in a steampunk world. A photographer were there and took some pictures. Here's her blog, and I'm the one in the red dress (you can't miss me, I'm the one who look smug beyond belief, that dress is to die for). To see more pictures check ( Read more... )

I feel reluctant to post unless I have something to say about my writing or some really good links that I want to share, all the other stuff just get lost on the way to a post somehow. I get the feeling that I'm wasting space when I'm trying to stay in touch. I mean, I know just how much I'm looking forward to hear from my friends all over the ( Read more... )

 A friend linked to these. Oh. My. Godness. I'm not much for fancy stockings otherwise but these! Yum!

In related news: I had my spring coat on today. It's a pretty little number Sweetest gave me for Christmas. Burgundy thin wool with white dots in a narrow trench model. I felt very spring-y. Underneath I wore a slip, a blouse, a knit vest, a ( Read more... )

Ja, det är väl knappast en hemlighet att jag gillar steampunk? Att jag förtär böckerna, dreglar över modet och är helt beroende av Abney Parks musik? Nu har jag kommit ut för hela svenska folket dessutom. På litteraturbloggen Nittonde stolen har jag en hyllningstext uppe som del av deras tema: science fiction. Kolla gärna in den och kommentera ( Read more... )

Pretty, pretty, pretty! I really wish I had something stunning for next week. I just don't have any time to find a suitable garment, not to mention what it would take in time and cardiac arrest to try to make something nice... Ah, well. We have the 'net to let me oogle women in beautiful clothes. No, it's not for porn- it's for prettyness!

Thanks to frualeydis I got to see this and I'm SO in love! Alexander McQueen for the win!

I really have to remember that I'll want my vacation out of town next year. The last day of the festival was by far the worst. Me and my sweetest realized that we had spared ourselves the worst of it by not venturing out during the evenings. Friday was an exception to that ( Read more... )

... how ever will I cope? =)

I went to a clothes-swap a month or so back and Grön Stad (a newspaper covering  local news about environment and the like). I got my picture taken and was asked a few questions - now I'm in the paper in a pretty, white dress from the '70s. It's lovely, the picture are not bad and I'm quoted correctly! Check it out, nr ( Read more... )
