Texicon Förlag is inviting media to book interviews with four authors at the 2026 Gothenburg Book Fair, including Annika Ortmark Lind and three children’s book writers. The publisher is offering in-booth interviews, photography and review copies, with some authors available on different days of the fair.

Why it matters: - Texicon Förlag is using Bokmässan 2026 as a media moment for four current authors and four new books. - The lineup spans literary fiction and children’s books, giving editors and culture reporters multiple interview angles in one place. - The publisher is also offering review copies and photo opportunities, which can speed up coverage.

What happened: - Texicon Förlag invited journalists, editors, photographers and culture reporters to book one-on-one interviews at the Gothenburg Book Fair. - The main press slot is Saturday, 26 September 2026, from 10:00 to 14:00 at booth A03:29. - Three authors will also be available Thursday, 24 September 2026, from 14:00 to 15:00 at booth B09:02. - Müge Teksöz will be available Friday, 25 September 2026, from 11:00 to 12:00 at booth B09:02. - Annika Ortmark Lind will be available Friday, 25 September 2026, from 11:30 to 12:00 at booth B09:02. - Interviews can be booked in advance and held on site at the booth. - Press contact is press@texicon.se.

The details: - Annika Ortmark Lind is promoting Tills du slutar andas, described as one of the year’s strongest works of fiction. - The novel centers on love and grief, and also raises the issue of assisted dying. - Henrik Dahlström is promoting Fabian Sjöfarare i Lapa del Sol, a humorous chapter book for children ages 6 to 9. - Henrik Dahlström’s book focuses on friendship, community, and the value of time versus material things. - Dahlström is from Bohuslän and has studied engineering, international relations and creative writing. - He now works as a sound technician with the touring band Haaks and describes writing as meditation, freedom and ongoing work. - Charlotta Björnulfson is promoting Igor vill sova, a read-aloud book for very young children. - The story follows hedgehog Igor as he wakes for his first winter and searches for his mother. - Björnulfson has worked as an author and illustrator and has published several books. - Her background as a special education teacher has strongly shaped her writing. - Müge Teksöz is promoting Busiga Tass, published in Turkish as Yaramaz Patili. - The story follows Busiga Tass after she gets lost in the forest while chasing away a black cat. - The book is about handling setbacks, reflecting on one’s actions and daring to apologize. - Teksöz is debuting as a children’s book author with Busiga Tass. - Busiga Tass is printed, but delivery has been delayed and the book will not be available at Bokmässan. - Review copies will still be available as a PDF or e-book. - Texicon gave a postal and visiting address at Köpsvängen 10, 168 67 Bromma, Sweden. - The publisher also listed social media links for Texicon on Facebook and Texicon on YouTube.

Between the lines: - The pitch is built for fast media pickup, with tightly scheduled interview windows and clear contact instructions. - The children’s titles appear designed to frame bigger themes in accessible ways, from winter survival to the value of time and the need to apologize. - The delayed delivery of Busiga Tass suggests the publisher is still trying to secure coverage even without physical books at the fair.

What's next: - Media can email press@texicon.se or text the listed number to book interviews before the fair. - Texicon says review copies are available, and some titles can be supplied digitally if the printed book is not on site. - The key public appearance will be Saturday’s shared booth session, when all four authors are scheduled to be present.

The bottom line: - Texicon is turning Bokmässan 2026 into a focused press showcase for one adult literary title and three children’s books.
