She made her literary debut with the fantasy novel Skjelka-Agenten, issued on Gyldendal, as was her second novel Rasp (2008). In 2011 she published Halvgudene on Cappelen Damm. This book earned her the Ark children’s literature prize  [ no ], and was followed by Halvgudene II and III in 2012 and 2013.
