Linus Blad

Linus Blad is a Swedish author whose writing explores the quiet dramas of everyday life. His stories often centre on ordinary people in small communities, capturing the subtle moments that shape who we are and how we live.

Before turning to fiction, Linus worked for nearly fifteen years as a freelance musician, an experience that continues to influence the rhythm and tone of his storytelling. His background in music brings a lyrical quality to his prose and a deep sensitivity to human emotion.

He first began writing science fiction and dystopian stories, published in Sweden, but later found his true creative home in contemporary drama. In his recent work, Linus draws inspiration from the understated intensity of real life — from the beauty, tension, and quiet heartbreak that exist in the everyday.

Linus lives in southern Sweden with his family.
