Freyr Thorvaldsson writes

I write articles, poems and short stories in Icelandic and English.

For the last year it's mostly been for The Reykjavík Grapevine, an English speaking newspaper in, you guessed it, Reykjavík.

I currently write two regular columns for them, one is "Word of the Issue", usually about how Icelandic overlaps with English in surprising ways, the other is "Free Business Idea", where I offer up some good ideas to make money. It's meant to be funny and sometimes it even is.

I have a newsletter where I tend to publish articles and short stories. You can find it here
