About the novel

This novel is a story that has been stuck in my head for several years now. As an experiment in getting it out of there, I will be posting it on this blog, 1000 words at a time - hopefully daily - until it's all gone.

I'm translating this from danish, my mother tongue, editing it heavily in the process, and posting it as it gets done. It's very likely to have typos, grammar errors and too many commas.

The themes are probably slightly dark, as it's very much inspired by fairy tales, the most obvious one being beauty and the beast.

The easiest way to read it is to click on the page you want to read and continue from there clicking next page.

I've just read through what I have so far, and have noticed several small mistakes and things that change more or less subtly throughout (there's a word for that, but I don't remember)
I am tempted to go back and edit everything, but I think that might be against the point, so for now I'll leave it out. I suppose it's sort of a part of this entire experiment: to let the story out randomly and see where it goes. I have a feeling my english has gotten more fluent since I started, but that might just be because I haven't looked at the first pages for a while. Still, it's horrible in the beginning and I apologise for that, dear imaginary readers.
