Author has written 42 stories for Life, General, Love, Horror, General, Friendship, and Haiku.

Hi. Thanks for stumbling by my page... many thanks for any reviews. I am a fan of critique and welcome it with open arms, and hope that I haven't disouraged you by throwing out, what may be, unwanted pointers or suggestions.

About: I am a half irish-half norwegian fashion student who enjoys writing occassionally in her spare time. I am a little trapped in a cycle of repeating the same words or themes in different pieces, of which I am trying to break free, but not having too much success.

My fiction has mainly been influenced by Haruki Murakami's cool detatched prose, and unfortunately I think my tone often comes of soundly something like a tribute act.

My poetry is mainly a manipulation of images, colours and sound and attempt to capture them in a series of words. In this sense I want my poetry to be experienced rather than read.




1. The Lobby Pianist and a French Baguette Sonata
I contracted this feeling entirely naturally and perhaps somewhat nostalgically. It wasn't lust, nor was it a desire for romance or comfort, and by those restraints could it even be classified as love at all?

2. Denial
I wish colour would disappear, The piercing saturation that bombards my eyes, Makes it harder to pretend that life isn't real, And were that hue to fade away to muted tones, This delicate dream could take reality's place

4. Trail Shapes In The Wind reviews
A thought that remains a parody of something real, Stitched upon our mind in a blanket of emotions, Although they lie away from reach, We grow until the sparks can be caught in our grasp

Without regard to the emotions, That lay preserved in frozen hearts, They slowly melt away from life. I shoot these transparent bullets, Glances that pass through to the other side unnoticed
