I posted a new Medium piece about presales and how they shape an independent book rollout. Readers often see presales as a convenience, but they influence visibility, search behaviour, and how a book enters the market. I wanted to map out the mechanics from an indie author’s perspective.
The post is here:

There's nothing else quite like the lingering snows of summer, especially when you've sailed as far north as the open waters will carry you, and you taste air from the divine realm even further beyond...
I call this shot "Grimnir's Breath"; taken in Svalbard's Isfjorden.

When you're this far north, and it's *always* bright crisp daylight with snowflakes drifting through the air...and *this* is midsummer, you feel like you're slipping beyond the Earth as our ancestors knew it...
Taken in Longyearbyen one June: "Midnight in the Shadow World".

This #video of #Monacobreen, a tidewater glacier in #Svalbard, #Norway, provides a good demonstration of calving and the #waves it can create.

Svalbard whalers show scurvy and extreme labor stress in “Corpse Point” cemetery
Climate change is rapidly erasing evidence from one of the Arctic’s largest early modern whaling cemeteries, where archaeologists have uncovered signs of harsh labor, poor nutrition, and declining health among the men who worked Europe’s northern whale fisheries...More information: https://archaeologymag.com/2026/05/svalbard-whalers-show-scurvy-and-labor-stress/

As Trump renews Greenland threat, what next for Iceland, Svalbard, and Åland?
The US is still muscling in on Greenland, posing questions if undefended Iceland could be next, or if Russia has designs on demilitarised Svalbard and the Åland Islands.

For anyone that wondered, as I did, what happens in the Russian community on Norway's Svalbard archipelago, France24 has a great 25 minute report on the community. Spoiler: it's poor, performative, heavily oppressed and they have a South African white woman doing their little social media propaganda.
