Four new non-fiction authors to Northern Stories
We are proud to introduce you to our four new non-fiction authors!
Congratulations to Linn Skåber, who was the recipient of the Wenche Foss Honorary Award for 2022!
The Wenche Foss Honorary Award is awarded to a person, organization, or institution that can be strongly associated with Foss’ zest for life, communication skills, and commitment – both in and outside the artistic arena.
“This year’s winner of the Wenche Foss Honorary Award is a rare multi-talent… The jury would particularly like to highlight her excellent youth book, Being Young,” the jury writes in its justification.
BEING YOUNG was the best-selling YA book in Norway in 2018 and has sold over 100,000 copies in Norwegian. Foreign rights have been sold to 11 countries.
Other books in the series include BEING GROWN-UP and TO US FROM OUR ELDERS.
Linn is also currently on tour with her hit play, WAITING FOR GOD KNOWS.
Congratulations, Linn! 🎉

Agenturet Northern Stories utvider staben: Daglig leder/gründer Astrid Dalaker og Agent Olivia Lasky får nå med seg Mira Mack Omdahl på laget som ny agent. Mack Omdahl kommer fra stillingen som manusredaktør i Aschehoug barn og ungdom.
Northern Stories økte omsetningen fra 4,5 til 8,4 millioner kr i fjor. – Det er et signal om at vi har lykkes i våre strategiske veivalg, sier Astrid Dalaker.
The upcoming series The Fortress (Festning Norge) won the award for best script at the most prestigious international series festival Series Mania in France. The series is based on an idea and script developed by John Kåre Raake and Linn-Jeanethe Kyed, and was the only Norwegian series on the programme.
