About Me


Come and see my website www.phc.no
I'm a writer of several novels and a couple of children's books. My first novel was published in 1989 and called "Harry var ikke ved sine fulle fem". The second, "Neer", came in 1995, "Kongens Løv" in 2000, "Humle & Honning" in 2001 and "Drømmer om storhet" in 2002. My first childrens book, "Fjodor går bananas" was published in 2006 and the second, "Fjodor i fritt fall" in February 2007. In March 2007 a German language edition of "Drømmer of storhet" was published by Rockbuch Verlag with the title "Die Ordnung der Worte".
This novel received great attention when released in Norway in 2002, much because of one of the novels subordinate characters being Paul Waaktaar-Savoy, and that the main character, Hobo Highbrow, is an admirer of the pop group a-ha. Back then a-ha fans from 25 countries expressed their interest in reading the book in their own language, and Germany is now first out.
Read more about the book or buy it HERE (German version) or HERE (English version) .
