Virtual trophy cabinet

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to receive a few awards and nominations, both for my own work and for projects I’ve helped bring to life. This is my little virtual trophy cabinet.

2026 • Winner: Best Creative Newsletter

The Bagatelles, Inbox Awards

My independent literary newsletter, The Bagatelles, won gold in the Best Creative Newsletter category at the 2026 Inbox Awards, which attracted more than 200 entries and celebrate the very best of Sweden’s newsletters.

The jury’s citation:

This year’s winner transforms the inbox into a place for literature. Through short stories, unexpected worlds and a playful approach to form, readers are invited to escape everyday life for a moment. Here, the newsletter becomes a direct link between writer and audience, offering room for both experimentation and a distinctive voice of its own.
