Camilla Läckberg Writing Styles
Läckberg considers herself a crime writing specialist since discovering such literature on her father’s bookshelf at a young age. It has remained a fascination for her ever since. Her books have received special praise for detail and “in-depth characterization”. Läckberg – sometimes called the Swedish Agatha Christie– became a writer after her husband and parents enrolled her in a creative writing course as a Christmas present. She describes herself as a visual writer: “For me actually, specific images – snapshots – come first, and then the story starts to come together from those bits and pieces. I am very visual when I write, I ‘see’ the story in pictures and writing a book is like having a movie running in my head 24/7”.
