Pete lives in a leafy suburb in Central Sweden. He spends his days looking after children, reading, and writing stories. His stories have appeared in numerous journals, including London Fog, Wells Street, Art Ascent and Strukturriss. He has been a finalist for LISP, New Millenium and Hawkeye, and won a micro competition for Globe Soup. In spare time, Pete is a volunteer storyteller for the very young and he plays a little Bach on the guitar. He loves hiking in Swedish skog, trying not to bump into moose. Again. No AI is used in any part of my writing; no smart software; no autocorrect; no grammar checker; no spellchecker. It's all just me. |

| All the world's forests are different: Scottish pine on a frosty morning; English oak dappling the sunlight; giant Canadian firs shouldering their blanket of snow. Swedish skog is beautiful, each living tree stretching tall for its share of light, those fallen now rotting, returning their nutrients back to the common land. Everywhere is blanketed with green moss, painted onto every rock by trolls in the night. Birdsong fills the air. Tiny creatures rustle under ground cover, burying themselves in the hoofprints of bigger beasts. With each breath you smell the land of Midgård, protected by the gods. Pete Armstrong
