Christin Magdu is a screenwriter and author with a passion for dramedy—the space where laughter and heartbreak meet. With a diverse background as an actress, stuntwoman, and film critic, she brings a unique cinematic perspective to her writing. This experience ultimately led her to her true passion of becoming a full-time screenwriter, and while her scripts span multiple genres, they are all infused with her trademark blend of warmth, wit, and emotional depth.

Following her 2021 co-authored book, Alexa, with Margaux Dietz, Christin is now poised to make her solo debut as a novelist. Her forthcoming book is a sparkling romantic comedy about self-discovery, second chances, and finding love in the most unexpected of places.
Miss Fortune (Miss Lyckad) is scheduled for publication in October 2025 by Bookmark Förlag.

On the difference between writing for the screen and the page, Christin reflects:

“A screenplay is a blueprint for a larger collaboration—every scene and line is ultimately shaped by directors, actors, and budgets. A novel is the opposite. It’s total creative freedom. I get to be the director, the set designer, and have a direct line into my characters’ innermost thoughts and dreams. The story can go anywhere because, in a novel, there are no limits.”
