It's Monday and the weather is miserable again 🌧️ Definitely time to treat yourself to one of my titles! 😊📚

Finished off in Reykjavik tonight with a 7-step ritual followed by watching the sunset over the ocean at the Sky Lagoon

A bracing walk along the harbour

✍️ In line with the trend among fellow writers, I've asked ChatGPT to create a caricature of me and what I do for a living. 😁

I love the crispness of an arctic sunrise ☀️ 🌅

I'm always busy 😊

Fantastic Winter Lights Festival in Reykjavik tonight ❄️

An interesting story I picked up from the Reykjavik Grapevine newspaper, I probably wouldn't have seen otherwise 🗞️. Trump's nominee for ambassador to Iceland is obviously as clever as POTUS; I.e., not very)

103 days to go.... The final edit of the book is complete. This year marks the 60th anniversary of Tuula's unsolved murder and, what would have been, her 80th birthday. It's almost time to share with the world the shocking story of what really happened on the night of 30th December 1966 #tuula

It's raining in Scotland (again). Meanwhile, on the tip of the Arctic Circle

Make him stop, please.. I can't take it anymore. At least if this if was The Apprentice, we could fire him, or stop watching

📚Wandering around Reykjavik thinking about Icelandic bookshops, and which one of my stories would make a perfect Iceland Noir Trial By Jury event ⚖️

📚 After lots of conversations with my publisher and cover designer, the final version of the front cover for #TUULA is complete. I think we've got the balance right between the investigation of a gruesome murder and honouring the memory of someone who lost their life so tragically.

✍️ Welcome to a new week folks. I'll try to be inspirational today, instead of miserable as usual. It's never too late to try your hand at writing. George Orwell, Raymond Chandler, Toni Morrison & Frank McCourt didn't have success until late in life. And I didn't publish my first book until I was 54

At least I've never had a review like this 🤣🤣 Harsh but fair though 🤣

It's 1️⃣1️⃣2️⃣ days until the release of my book telling the story of TUULA and my investigation into her unsolved murder. Things are moving fast. I'm in discussions with a production company for a possible TV documentary and podcast series for release in 2027 and a finalised cover design isn't far away

❤️ It's two years today since my mum sadly died, so I thought I'd share these pictures. Together with the Friends of Christ Church, we've enabled her legacy to be used to restore and refurbish one of the stained glass windows at her beloved church, in time for the anniversary of her passing. ⛪
