About

Jack Lund, Author

Hi, am Jack Lund. Chronical misfit, writer and novelist in no particular order.

I have been working in different professions such as a certified car mechanic, a tour manager for bands,  a film production assistant, a diving instructor and as a PhD in biological research. Also I tried to live as a woman for about 40 years of my life. However, some years ago, I decided to give up trying and started transitioning to living as a man. Unsurprisingly, other suppressed wishes ramped up and wanted to be aknowledged as well. So finally I gave up showcasing the conservative me- and in to my writing ambitions, starting to persue an author career.

Being in control, a.k.a. acting the way people and the society expect from me, has been a major issue for me for a long time. In order to obtain that level of control, I sacrificed  emotions, believes and a lot of joy in my life.

But I am certainly not alone in this. Today, I see friends burning out, suffering from anxiety & stress syndroms, spending their lives in misery out of fear of change, of not living up to what “people” expect from them. Maybe this is why my writing often plays with people losing control of something in their lives. I am constantly surprised how my characters react when they can´t control a thing. Let me kidnap you into a perspective you would never voluntarily inhabit- and please, please- let me entertain you!
