Welcome to the writer’s room

I’m Juhana Lumme; a screenwriter, author, filmmaker, and comic book artist – in a word, a storyteller. I was born in Lapland, the North of Finland, and even though life has taken me to warmer climates, my heart still lies in the Arctic soil.

The samurai saw the warrior’s way as a twofold path – the way of pen and sword, and they mastered both. I believe this works both ways; it’s also beneficial for a writer to master the sword, and I’m a devoted yoga and tai chi practitioner.

By education, I’m a Master of Arts from the University of Industrial Arts and Design Helsinki, where my practice film, High Hopes, was a candidate for the short film Oscar-nominations, and my graduation script, feature film Dogs Don’t Wear Pants, had its premiere at Cannes Film Festival.

Check out some of my work by reading the ongoing webcomic Satan Show Comic Recreation, or watch for free a document about a mystic Finnish martial art.
