Living and writing in darkness and light in my very own little corner of the world - Raufarhöfn Iceland, pop. around 200 black souls... Loving the #booksky community ❤️
Winter is coming at Iceland Noir 🤩 (and that muscle guy is probably toast) 😂

Just arrived at Reykjavík for the Iceland Noir writers conference for the third time. First time I saw the moon being cradled by cloud-hands. Then a a volcano erupted. I wonder what this year will show me 🤩

At the south gate of the Arctic Henge, looking over my village. Should be writing but a brisk walk is supposed to stimulate the mind, right? 😎

First snow of the winter in north Iceland.
It came at dawn in frosted lace,
A shy hello to every place.
Tomorrow’s rain will chase it through.
One day of winter passing through.

It's gonna be a #writing day but I had to start with a calming beach walk. Aiming for 2000 words in my noir crime novel (third in the Darkness series).

The short sub arctic summer has finally shown up! Time to swap snowboots for sleeping bags and plan all the camping trips before the polar wind remembers us again 🌬️👀

Swapped coffee for tea and took up Arctic gardening. Clearly I'm one plot twist away from solving small-town crimes... 🌻🔍

Visited my grandpa in the fjord where I grew up. Funny how you only really see the beauty of a place once you’ve been away long enough to miss it.

Three cats, one bed, and zero boundaries. The one in the middle (Goofy, the only girl) is clearly mid-monologue, the front one (Joey) is in a food coma, and the back (Needy)? Well, he’s pretending none of this is happening.

Been taking some time away from writing to focus on some long-overdue self-care. That means slower days and deeper listening. I’ll be back to writing soon, more present, more grounded. I hope 😊
For now, pls enjoy this relaxing view from my back porch...

Happy Icelandic Independence Day! We broke up with Denmark in 1944 (but we still like them). In a way it’s one of the healthiest long-distance relationship in history: they send design, we send volcano ash 🤷

Year four living in Arctic Iceland. Spent the week collecting plants like a low-budget botanical thief and just potted the whole gang. Give me a few years and this yard’s going full jungle (whether the Arctic likes it or not) 🌼
