Frida Skybäck

I hela sitt liv har Frida drömt om att bli författare och redan i tidig ålder var det roligaste hon visste att skriva berättelser som sedan lästes upp för vänner och familj.

2007 började Frida blogga om sin resa i samband med att hon skickade in sitt första deckarmanus till en handfull utvalda förlag. Flera av dem visade intresse för det hon hade skrivit och Frida fortsatte att producera polisromaner.

2010 beslöt Frida, efter att ha sjukskrivits för utmattningssyndrom, att göra ett sista försök att bli utgiven genom att prova en ny genre. Detta visade sig vara ett lyckokast och i oktober 2011 debuterade hon med den historiska kärleksromanen Charlotte Hassel.

I juni 2012 kom hennes andra historiska roman Den vita frun.

The Bucket List, their debut novel, has been sold in 15 countries.

Sara Paborn

Sara Paborn är född 18 mars 1972 i Sölvesborg. Hon skrev sitt första romanförsök när hon var 16 år, inspirerad av stämningen i Woody Allens film Radio Days. Hon hade då många års skrivande av noveller, dikter, första-kapitel till romaner och musikrecensioner i lokaltidningar bakom sig. ”Romanen” refuserades, liksom de två efterföljande försöken.

Efter att hon fött sitt andra barn 2005, sa hon upp sig från sitt jobb som copywriter och började skriva det som blev hennes debutroman Släktfeber. Boken utkom på Brombergs våren 2009 och blev en omtalad publikframgång. Samma år var Sara en av sommarvärdarna i Sveriges Radios serie Sommar i P1. Programmet finns att lyssna på här.

Fionnuala Kearney

Fionnuala discovered, age six, that she had in fact been christened Ann (that’s Ann with no ‘e’) and that her parents had decided, for some reason, to saddle her with a life of dealing with unnecessary vowels. At twenty she moved to London and marrying Mr. Kearney proved to be the best thing she ever did, apart from the fact that the vowel thing escalated further. Two daughters, both with deliberately simple mono syllabic names followed.

She worked, for many years, in London as a home search agent (like Phil and Kirstie without the cameras) until she decided, one fateful day, that it was time for a change – time to pursue the dream of being a writer.

Seven years on; time spent in her garret learning her craft, she is often found talking to

Set Mattsson

Set Mattsson är utbildad sjuksköterska och journalist. Under lång tid närde han en dröm om skrivandet, och 2010 sökte han sig till Författarskolan i Lund. Här kunde skrivandet ta fart på allvar, och Set skrev entusiastiskt på en kriminalhistoria som utspelade sig i 40-talets Malmö. Passionen för historia fick också äntligen sitt utlopp.

Malmöskildringen blev Set Mattssons slutmanus på utbildningen, och när den var klar gick han raka vägen till Historiska Media för att testa sina chanser att bli utgiven. Redan några sidor in i manuset förstod vår förläggare att detta var något alldeles särskilt. Vilken historisk tonträff! Vilka karaktärsskildringar! Och vilken spännande story!

2012 utkom debutromanen Ondskans pris, som mottog mycket fina recen

Maria Sveland

Maria Sveland (born 1974) is an author and journalist from Sweden, best known for the 2007 book Bitterfittan (a title which is a Swedish compound noun, and could be translated either as The Bittercunt or The Bitter Cunt, or, less literally, The Bitterbitch or The Bitter Bitch).

Bitterfittan is, according to Sveland, not an autobiography but rather a work inspired by her own experiences. The book criticizes the institutionalized nuclear family from a feminist perspective, pointing out issues such as women's unpaid domestic labor, sexual violence, and the disproportional male/female use of parental leave.

Maria Lang

Dagmar Lange was a Swedish author of crime fiction under the pen name Maria Lang. She was one of the first detective novelists in the Swedish language, and her books helped make the genre popular in Sweden.
