Storytellers: #HistoricalSuspense
If you don't write your story, they will.
Iceland, 1920. The last thing Gunnar, a hermit blacksmith wants is an injured lodger, but his money may change Gunnar’s life. So might the stranger’s story – by ending it. That is, unless an unwanted marriage, God’s messengers’ sudden interest, an obnoxious elf, or his doctor’s guilt change the narrative – or Gunnar's demons cut all stories short.

Children: #grimdark #fantasy #litfic, first in series (sequel coming next year)
How does it feel to be a child of a God? Gods make lousy parents… but, unfortunately, interesting ones.

Why Odin Drinks: #NorseMythology remix for fans of #TerryPratchett
Poor Odin only just started existing and already has a Universe to decorate, a smug Tree to ignore, and two competitive brothers who think they’d make better All-Fathers. Horrible things such as celery, mosquitoes, Loki, and people keep happening at him. The esteemed egg whisk and highly regarded feather duster? Not so much…
“A delightfully quirky satire I didn't know I needed” – #JennyLawson
