Buy a physical book from small bookstores, build your library, protect knowledge. Remain free.
It's always been the case that "buying" an ebook from amazon was only actually a loan they could rescind at any point, but lately Amazon have gone harder on this, and it is 100% so that they can wipe banned books from your libraries without your consent.

Buy direct from authors. Get your files.

Happy Winter Solstice

The winter solstice, also known as Alban Arthan in the Druidic tradition, is a time to celebrate the return of light and the hope of spring.
The name Alban Arthan is Welsh for “Light of Winter”. An older interpretation is Alban Arthuan, which means “Light of Arthur”.

Isn't it interesting how some people don't visualize what they read? So, when you write, do you see vivid images of your words come to life in your mind?

On my way to a library to read to teenagers. It’s -7, but no wind (rare in Reykjavík!), and the view from where I am waiting for the bus is showing off, so all in all not so bad.
