A writer must sometimes experiment. A few days ago, I wrote a short story in 2nd person.

A quiet piece about what happens when we set aside expectation and let the noise fall away.

The story is free. Grab the ebook and enjoy.

Quiet Christmas…
Christmas has a particular texure. Not just the lights or the noise, but the quieter things underneath. The pause. The cold air. The sense that the year is folding in on itself. We busy ourselves w…

No surprise, given his health struggles. Very sad news nonetheless. Always seemed like the nicest person you could imagine.

Happy winter solstice!

Here is a photo I shot in Iceland during this season some years ago.

I wrote my upcoming novella in English, like everything I ever did.

Now translating it into Dutch to be published simultaneously and… the Dutch version feels better. Not a version, but its own thing.

Is this a problem, I ask myself.

Of course it isn’t. It’s fun.

De afgelopen tijd heb ik Recommended for You langzaam veranderd in aanbevolen voor jou.

En ja… mijn eerste roman in het Nederlands komt dus echt in februari 2026.
Vind je dat net zo leuk als ik? Laat het weten. 🩵

Here is a thought.

Authoritarians hate thriving democracies.

That’s why Russia fears Ukraine, China fears Taiwan, and MAGA fears Europe.

Free societies expose their lies.

The future is almost here.
No more historical fiction.
No more war stories.
Only technology.
Quiet dread.
AI that knows us.
AI that comforts us.

The future is coming and it’s Recommended for You.

I once read a small book by Jun'ichirō Tanizaki.

Today something sparked a short story. Slightly inspired by Tanizaki, very much inspired by… where I am and where my writing is going.

I will share it soon in my newsletter. villiasgeirsson.com/newsletter/

Imagine 1980s Bowie inspiring a 2017 novel set in 1937 Spain?

Blood and Rain:
“José put the Virgin back where she’d been. ‘In private.’ He turned her around, making the holy picture face the wall again.”

Ricochet by David Bowie:
Turn the holy pictures so they face the wall

How Celestina became a pilot:

“She sprinted toward the bomber, climbed through the hatch and hauled herself into the turret. Wrapped her hands around the machine guns, aimed at the enemy planes and pulled the trigger. Downed one.”

I just created the foundation for a novel. A deeply personal work. But I can’t write it yet. Maybe in five years.

Until then, let’s write other things.

Anyone else have ideas they cannot use just yet? A plan way into the future?

There’s something special about holding a book in your hands.

It’s physical, tangible. Something you can touch, lend, shelve, and return to years later. Or give to others, share.

Just me, a quiet room, and a book that hasn’t been published yet.

What are you reading?

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Election Day in the Netherlands. I would go and vote but I can’t. The one thing that might force me to adopt the Dutch nationality at some point. And the fact that Iceland refuses to join the European Union.

But if you can vote, do it!

I’m rather excited. Last weekend, I received proof copies of the Mont Noir and Sky hardcovers, as well as a brand new title in hardcover and paperback.

Tonight, I should have both Blood and Rain versions and the remaining paperbacks.

I may want to create reveal clips.

Still in the month where A Sky Without Stars was published…

Finalised another one for publication.

Half way through draft 1 of a third.

2026 is going to be good.

How is your weekend going?
