Undur útgáfa er komin hingað á Bluesky. Endilega fylgja og Undur fylgir til baka. Lengi hafði mig langað til að stofna útgáfu þar sem efni tengt fantastík væri í fyrirrúmi. Nóvellan mín Eilífðarvetur er upphafið. Ef þetta floppar ekki get ég fylgt ýmsum langtímaplönum eftir.

Ný bók, kíkið endilega í hóf!

Siðmenningin leið undir lok. Aldir hafa liðið. Á einangraðri eyju sem eitt sinn hét Ísland ríkir viðvarandi vetur og frumstæðir ættbálkar draga fram lífið. Tveir sagnaþulir bjarga vélkonu sem býr yfir botnlausri þekkingu úr fortíðinni - og flótti hefst yfir vetrarríki.

I don't write unless I'm listening to music. I simply can't have silence when working. 'Tis the enemy. I figured I should, once in a while, recommend writing-music. First one: Carbon Based Lifeforms. A Swedish duo that makes high quality psybient. Often helps with getting the flow going.

This, by Matthew Boroson, is pretty convincing. I knew exactly none of it before reading the original post on Facebook.

Forgot to post this. A new Christmas tradition. Isn't it just wonderful?

Went to the library early in the morning when few were there, used the self check out and snuck out. It's a very, very weird mix of books. Exciting-weird for me, since now I can truly research for the novel.

Last year I finished two series. Two finales where I could neither let my readers nor myself down. This year -- that is, right now -- I'm starting a novel that has been brewing for awhile and no one knows anything about. There's a certain serenity that goes along with that.

Last night a news site wasn't the first place I heard about the eruption but from a friend standing on her balcony, sending the picture to our table top game group.

An intense year. Two novels published, not a normal thing, stuff happened and developed until I was in this situation. I gave everything I had. After both were out I rested (was a vegetable) for a month, a bit afraid I wouldn't have more in me. And that's nonsense! The itch is back! Where is my pen?

For the first time in 25 years I took part in a (casual prerelease) Magic: The Gathering tournament. Won 3 out of 4 matches and got me some sweet boosters! My life counter from '96 was 6 years older than one of the opponents ...

"Welcome home, dad!" #Worldcon was amazing but it's good to be back home. We went straight for icecream.

A 2nd novel sent to the editor this year, in time for @glasgow2024.bsky.social! Here I'm holding the one launched at @icecon.bsky.social. Can't wait to absorb everything at #Worldcon, meeting new and old friends. I'll be on two panels: Combining Genres and Building Fictional Folklores. #Glasgow2024

Icelandic witchcraft is beautifully demented. Necropants. Made from the skin of a dead human. The person must accept the flaying before their death. The pants must be worn right away so they grow on you. Then you steal a coin from a poor widow, put it into the ballsack, producing endless money.

Fór ekki að skæla! En fékk tár í augun samt. Smá kusk, þarf líklega að þurrka af...

En mæli EINDREGIÐ með að þeir sem hafa verið að lesa bækurnar hans @emilhpetersen.bsky.social skelli sér í að lesa Skuld, gæti mögulega hafa byrjað á henni í gærkvöldi og klárað rétt í þessu...

Ran up to my office to jot stuff down but snuck back out. My son and his friends were eating cookies and playing some sort of Pictionary. I'll allow it.
