~ A unique insight into the author's writing process ~
Welcome to Folkets hörna at the Sketches museum in Lund and live on Zoom!
Contributing authors are Johan Theorin and Kenny Andersson. Therése Granwald and Johan Blomgren from Folkets hörna will lead the discussion.
People's Corner – work in progress is a stage for literary 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 author reads a short excerpt from an ongoing writing project and then receives feedback from two writing educators who lead the text discussions. 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 do not have to participate in the conversation, it is fine to just listen, but it is encouraged.
Our established author this evening is Johan Theorin! In 2007, Johan's debut novel Skumtimmen was published. This was followed by Nattfåk in 2008, Blodläge in 2010 and Rörgast in 2013, which together deal with Öland during the four seasons. Johan has been awarded several prizes for his books. Among other things, the English translation of Skumtimmen, Echoes from the Dead, was awarded The CWA Dagger Debut Award and Nattfåk won The Darkest Room the following year The CWA International Dagger Award.
