A Day Without Writing is No Day

Scribere Necesse est, Vivere non

My name is Carl. I am a lawyer and a writer. I live in Sweden, on a small Island called Lidingo. I used to be a freelance translator for 12 years and my languages were Swedish, Finnish, English, and German. I retired from my translation business and now I am a full-time author. I have written ten books, one book of poems in English, called In Other Words. Further I wrote a book about my time as a criminal defense lawyer, called Brottstycken (Swedish) Now I am working on my third book, named Den Charmfulle Svindlaren. I have also written some short stories, which I call Little Shards of Happiness and Sadness.

In Other Words

This is a poetry book. It is about life on earth. It is a "feel good" book that should have its place on every night table.
"When you are done, it´s not to find."
