Two screenwriters, one marriage, and far too many movie references.
Married and together for over 40 years, our main profession is within IT and telecom industry for over 30 years. But hey, who's counting!
Our main interests are of course family and friends but also everything within film and travel. We usually get our inspiration from travels around the world, and believe it or not, sometimes even a long walk with our dogs or a good night's dream.
We like everything related to the entertainment and movie industry, all kind of film genre. Everything can inspires us to write, and hopefully we will get the opportunity to entertain and maybe sometimes also frighten our audiences, that would be fun. 😊

"I've always liked theatre, standing on stage and acting out and getting the audience with me, standing in front of the camera gives the same feeling, although a while afterwards, the audience isn't there in the heat of the moment."
In my teenage years I had the lead role in a theater play called "The Diary of Anne Frank" and more recently, I'm proud to have had opportunity to participated as a film extra in a couple of productions that have been well received by audiences. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Square, and Easy Money II, (Swedish film, Snabba cash II.)

"I love photography, have photographed and recorded some videos during my teenage years, has always been fascinated by filmmaking, attended a couple courses in my younger age, love to write stories, love to be behind the camera. It would be the ultimate in my and my wife's lives to experience and have the privilege to attend and see how talented actors contributes to a film from one of our screenplays, our tales."
How it all started with writing a screenplay in all seriousness is a pure coincidence that I am grateful today that it happened at all. I got a tip from a journalist I met at a networking event about Cinemantrix workshop for acting and scriptwriting. So there wasn't much to think about, my wife and I signed up right away and that's where we came up with our first tales. It was a short thriller that would later become our first screenplay which we named ACONITUM,
