@angray.bsky.social we’ve had a postal strike here, so no cards this year. Henry and I wondered whether we could either Zoom or WhatsApp video with you and Pom some time over the holidays? Boxing Day would work for us or any day after. Let me know.

Now, I’ve finished the big Norse book and it’s with my agent, I’ve allowed myself to read Norse flavoured fantasy and there is no better writer of that than John Gwynne. His Blood-Sworn trilogy is a tour de force.

I love research for my novels. Research can come and bite you on the bum. My book starts in Brattahlid. Greenland was mountainous, right? So I had my protagonist climbing cliffs. Visiting Greenland,there are no bloody cliffs at Brattahlid! So, I am stuck trying to sort out an alternative.
