Late February and the #weather in #Iceland still can't make up its mind 🤷

Sunlight tells you what is there, moonlight whispers what might be. One lays everything out bare, the other sets the shadows free. #sun vs #moon

Working on fixing some logic issues in my dystopian tech thriller. I was feeling a bit discouraged until this reminded me that even the greats left a few plot holes 😉 Sometimes story wins over science 🤷 #WriteSky #AmWriter #writing

If Iceland is Greenland and Denmark controls Greenland, am I Danish? And if Denmark should suffer because Norway didn't give Donald Trump the Nobel peace prize then I guess Norway controls Denmark. Wait... does that mean that I actually got a Nobel peace prize? 🤔 #iceland #wrongisland

A black cat used to visit and gaze in our window. All of my cats were afraid of him except for oldie Goldie here. We miss her ❤️ #caturday

#Christmasday in the sub arctic region of north Iceland. No snow and a storm is blowing from the south. So weird 😲

Snow settles on the slender trees, their branches stilled by Arctic breeze. November drifts in soft and slow, and wraps the world in Christmas snow. A nice day for #writing ❄️

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 🤩 #ViewFromMyWindow

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? 😎

All my life I’ve loved finding a new author, then realizing they have written many books 🤩 Such a joy! When readers tell me they’ve felt that way about my books, it reminds me why I don't give up in the tough world of modern publishing. What keeps you going? #writesky #AmWriting #writing #WhyIWrite

October mornings in the sub arctic are inspirational. Plan is to write 5 pages per day for two weeks. Day two and so far, so good ✍️😉 #WriteSky #AmWriter

Currently writing a psychological locked-room mystery, because apparently trapping people in their own heads is more fun than trapping them in a room 🤷 Clues are optional, denial is mandatory. #WriteSky #AmWriting

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. #Iceland

The #irony of being a sci-fi writer stuck in a timeline so dumb no editor would buy it. “Too unrealistic,” they’d say, while I watch the news and think, yep, that’s canon now 🤷 #WritersLife

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). #writesky #writerslife

Off camping in Iceland’s “heat wave”. It's pushing a scandalous 20°C (68°F). Practically tropical by local standards. No promises I won’t complain it’s too hot AND pack a sweater. 🏕️🇮🇸 #camping #Iceland

A news reporter was interviewing me about living in my village. She recognized my name and said her mom told her to hurry up and finish my latest book so they could discuss it, there was so much to talk about. One of the best compliments I've gotten ❤️📚 #writer #WriterLife #WriteSky #WritersCommunity

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 🌬️👀 #ArcticSummer #Iceland

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

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. #Homecoming #Iceland

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. #Caturday

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... #writesky #nature #calm
