3/21/2023 Tell us about some famous author from your city/state/country
From my city?! That is known like outside Finland??!? That would be none. At best I can mention J.L.Runeberg who wrote the poem that would be out national anthem, he went to school here.
As for authors from Finland....Tove Jansson? I guess she is our most famous one. The mother of Moomin.
We do not really have famous authors that are famous outside the Nordic countries, or at best Europe.
3/28/2023 What is your ideal book/audiobook length?

ReplyDeleteOhh, you have some good ones
DeleteI would have to research and see any famous ones for Michigan. They normally are all from New York or California.....mmmm
ReplyDeleteYeah, it was hard. No one here has made it over there
DeleteWe have a few local authors in our area but none that I would describe as famous. I am near Portland, Or and Seattle, WA though and I bet there are a few that I'm unaware of.
ReplyDeleteKaren @For What It's Worth

DeleteNot making much of a habit of following authors from around my hometown, I too would have struggled with an answer hahah Great pick, nonetheless! Thanks for sharing. :) P.S. Neat blog you got here by the way!

DeleteJustina Ireland, who is a pretty big YA author, is relatively local to where I live I guess!
ReplyDeleteHer I know :D
DeleteOoh this is a fun prompt. When I have a moment, I'll have to look into Houston based authors. I'm not sure I can get as specific as The Woodlands, TX, but I'll report back if I find someone!
ReplyDeleteI wish you luck!
DeleteI don't know about authors but I loved deadwind (a show) from Finland
ReplyDeleteI had to google it, Karppi, yup..not seen it. Oops
