~ A unique insight into the author's writing process ~
Welcome to Folkets hörna at the Sketches museum in Lund and live on Zoom!
Participating authors are Anna Thulin and Elisa Moberg. Therese Granwald and Johan Blomgren from Folkets hörna lead the conversation.
People's corner - work in progress is a stage for fiction texts in process. At Folkets hörna, two authors participate on each occasion, one who is already established and one who has not yet been published by the established publishers. Each writer reads a short excerpt from an ongoing writing project and then receives feedback from two writing educators who lead the text conversations. They also receive feedback from the other participating author and from the audience. In this way, the authors get a unique opportunity to test their work in progress on others, and the audience gets a rare insight into and opportunity to influence an author's writing process. You don't have to participate in the conversation, it's fine to just listen, but it's encouraged.
Our established author this evening is Anna Thulin. Anna is a journalist and writer, based in Paris and Skåne. Last year she made her children's book debut with "Kompassens hjärta" which was nominated for the Swedish children's and youth book of the year in the August prize with the justification:
In short condensed chapters with elegantly poetic headings, Anna Thulin writes psychologically convincingly about two boys - best enemies - whose destinies intertwine. One's concern for a fragile and missing parent meets the other's experiences of terrifying flight. Together, they set out on a grueling rescue operation with their lives at stake. In the heart of the compass, the icy winter landscape forms the foundation for a friendship that warms.
