My name is Maria Kvilhaug, I am Norwegian, born in 1975, I am a writer/historian and I talk a lot sometimes, especially about Norse myths and pre-Christian religions. I am the author of books like "The Seed of Yggdrasill - Hidden Messages in Old Norse Myths", "The Maiden with the Mead" and the creator of the YouTube series "Hidden Knowledge in Old Norse Myths" that happened a decade past. Since 2020, I have been making a sort of living producing lecture videos and audio on Patreon (www.patreon.com/mariakvilhaug), what has resulted in a whole library of audio book readings and video and audio lectures only available to paying patrons. This has been the only way to continue to do this full time work. I have now opened up YouTube membership options where you can access the video versions of these lectures that have founded more recent books like "The Great Knowledge - Stories of Seidr and Initiation" , "The Goddess Idunn in Poetry and Myth".
