I considered the Deeply Unsettling Body Wash but eventually chickened out.

Something warm and punny for your Monday.

A small Danish brewery came up with this 😂

Cat's now patched up, dressed up, and fed up with his cone.

Yup, I remember those, but I don't exactly feel nostalgic about them.

Someone downstream said to Post A Castle, and who am I to deny you the beauty of Burg Elz?

I stole this so I could give to everybody.

Not only was this rogan josh filling and tasty, it also seared all the hair from my tongue. No mouth-shaving tonight, whee!

Blurry picture of a frog that sounds a lot like a duck. Makes intermittent noises at night. Currently sitting on a ledge in my hotel room that's least two meters out of reach.

I was handed an opportunity to get all my ducks in a row. Turned out it was easier to pretend they were chickens.

Guys, these Star Wars stickers for muffins have gone way past their due date in the back of the closet. But I wanted to share their glory, such as it is...

Btw, they smell like bubble gum, even with the plastic wrapping intact.

Today, Mette and I celebrate our 50th birthday🍾🎊 Weather is perfect and the guests arrive in an hour or so, just in time for champagne.

The lowest-hanging rainbow I've ever seen. Awesome sight, strange weather.

Not much writing going on today, so have a pair of fluffballs getting fed a liquid snack.

This is the view from my writing retreat this week. If you have to be alone with your word processor for a week, Nice is a good place to do it. I miss my family, but at least it's been a productive experience.

I don't have many pictures from #Skrækfest2025 in Odense, but I had a very good day. My talk about writing for the anglophone world went well (the audience stayed for the full talk😜), and I got to talk to some very nice horror fans.
March 3, 2025 at 9:22 AM
Waiting for the first talk at today's horror festival in Odense, Skrækfest 2025. I'm on stage at 12:30. Well prepared and admittedly a bit nervous.
