Doddo is a permanent writer in the website of newspaper Bergens Tidendes where he blogs about all that concerns the football club Brann. Doddo has released five books. "Mitt Haukeland – En nær livet-opplevelse" (My Haukeland – A close to life experience) was released in 2012. The book is about Haukeland University Hospital, and was published in connection to the hospital's centenary anniversary.[1]
