Recently in my reader group, we decided to do a group re-read of all my books.

With nine years in this industry under my belt, there are quite a few books out there and most of them I haven't read through in years. So in a strange way, it's like I'm reading them for the first time.

That is, until I ge Read more of this blog post »

I fell into the dictionary again today and learned that Old Norse fífl (“fool”) also meant “monster” (cf Old English fifal “monster”), hence the fíflmegir (“monster men”) who rowed the hellship from Muspellheim that Loki steered on the way to Ragnarǫk. I wondered if the same word meaning “fool” and

Never broke out of the printed confine.
