About me

My name is Johan Lindback. I was born 1981 in Bollnäs, Sweden. Nowadays I live in Kiruna in northernmost Sweden, high among the mountains, with my wife Maria. I have a MSc in political science and a BSc in sound engineering. I’m an aspiring fantasy writer. I also spend my time making music and playing Nintendo Wii and 3DS. You can check out my short stories Elnora and If you cross the dusk at Smashwords. My first novel The shadow over Dianor is forthcoming. I’d be happy if you follow me on Twitter!

I’ve been suffering from health issues for some time and is on indefinite sick leave. Because of the illness I’m almost immobilized and has lost my ability to speak. Therefore writing has become my main way of communicating, and also a kind of lifeline. I’m not giving up on my dreams just because my body set itself up against me.

(And if you’re wondering I can tell you I look annoyed on purpose on the picture. I’m actually a happy and humorous person normally!)
