When I Finish A Book, I'm So

We're Prisioners Of... Things.of Who We Are.

I Don't Have Any Writing Routine. Sometimes I Go To My Local Coffee Shop And I Write There For Some Hours. Apart From That, I Am Traveling Most Of The Time. I Write In Airports, Trains, Hotel Rooms... I Can Write Anywhere.

At Nineteen I Was Pretty Sure I Was Going To Be A Professional Soccer Player. At That Time I Played For One Of The Norwegian Premier Leagues. But I Tore Ligaments In Both Knees, So I Started Studying Business Administration And Economics And Became A Financial Analyst, And I Worked At A Brokerage Firm As A Stockbroker.

The Only Pressure I Feel Is To Write Good Books. And To Not Replicate The Previous Book. Whether You Have A Thousand Readers Or A Million Readers It Doesn't Change The Pressure. I Never Feel Tempted To Give The Reader What I Think The Reader Wants.

They Say That Every Writer, They Write About Himself, And I Think That To A Certain Extent That Is True. But Also We Are Creators Of Fiction.
