Writer, deep-thinker,
storyteller & tea drinker
Hi, I’m Elin.
I’m a copywriter, blogger, and, at times when I’m feeling particularly gutsy, I try to be a fiction writer as well.
This is a corner for inspiring and prioritising the creative hobbies I love, alongside my writing job. Hobbies like reflecting and writing about the creative process on a Sunday. Having a life-long, deep and committed relationship with books. Finding the time to actually write that novel.
You’re invited to come along on this pensive quest, a quest filled with rainy days, steaming teapots and beloved creative projects.
My writing
The Good Creative Life is my Substack, a space where I ponder, poke and prod the creative process, and share musings and stories from the creative life.
I share my journey as it unfolds, the challenges I face, the processes I go through, the epiphanies I have.
Sometimes it’s the big stuff, and sometimes it’s the small everydayness. I’d love to write for you.
By day, I’m a copywriter.
I write content and copy for a young Stockholm based AI company. I swish about in my trenchcoat and live the city life.
I tell our brand’s stories, our customer’s stories, of how we’re changing the game of public procurement. And I love it.
By night, I tell my own stories.
In rural, Swedish suburbia, among forests, fields and lakes, I embrace my bookish creative self.
Substack
I write to reflect about the creative life. Journaling and blogging helps me sort out my thoughts, and I share my reflections about living creatively and trying to do it well on Substack.
Fiction writing
Books are my life-long loves. I’ve loved to read and write since I was just a kid. I keep fiddling with fiction projects and attempting to write something half-decent.
I design my creative life
to nourish, support and
inspire my love of literature
