Her strong Norwegian roots and family ties led her to Norway where she has been living now for over 20 years. Working mostly in the travel or health industry, her passion has always been writing. Living in Norway among Trolls has inspired her to write about them and the culture surrounding them.
Siv has written several short stories, including Freya’s Tears which will be published in Waymans Open Doors-Monstrous Myths and Legends anthology this fall. Secrets of the Ash Trees is the first book in a three part series called Gods and Fairy Tales. She is currently working hard on her second book in this series, and hopes to have it published soon.
Siv now lives with her husband in southern Norway and together they have two grown children. Siv also has two children from previous relationships that are currently living in the United States.
