From the time I was young, I loved to read and now I love to write. I am inspired by my Icelandic heritage, by folklore and mythology, and the everday adventures of life. I hope that I can share stories of Icelandic folklore, travel, and life adventures with a variety of audiences to inspire others to live life to the fullest and embrace the wonder and magic of Iceland.

Was Thor afraid of Gryla?
This story has been around since the 1300s....Thor himself may have hid under the covers as a child - terrified of the trolls and ogres! The hideous Gryla was mother to the famous Yule Lads.
The Legend of the Icelandic Yule Lads is the start of a new series - Children's stories based in Scandinavian mythology. This first book centers around the Icelandic legend of thirteen trolls that cause mischief and havoc around the holidays. Haven't read it yet?
