Hey, there's been a bunch of new users so I figured it might be a good idea to make this thread. Feel free to post your introductions, as well as any links to socials (only if you want to!) such as storygraph, goodreads, or bookwrym etc. I am hopeful to set up a bookwrym instance eventually but its still very much in early early early development.

Also be aware that there are alternative UI front ends, as seen from here. https://literature.cafe/post/315847

Hello! Markus here. I'm a Norwegian author who chose this instance because it seemed to be an interesting place for writing and reading.

I'm honestly not much of a reader, though I'm trying to change that.

I write stuff in Norwegian on my other socials, but you can find me on both mastodon and bookwyrm.

What's you're preferred writing topic, or genre?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

So far I've written a trilogy of science fantasy comedy graphic novels with an illustrator friend of mine.

I haven't started my next project yet, so I feel it's hard to say what's my perfetred topic or genre. Something that goes through my work, I think, is self-empowerment. Learning what you're worth, what you know, and using it to your advantage.

I like writing science fantasy, but I'm not sure I'll write it again soon.

I did say I was a Norwegian author, I don't know what else to tell you. Sorry.

Don't be sorry because I can read, lol. I'm just a goofball sometimes

I need to write more, I focus on reading more.... maybe this instance will push us to broaden both our horizons a bit
