It’s not often that an author has TWO BOOK BIRTHDAYS on the same day — but thanks to @tantoraudio both my novels have been released as audiobooks. Today I’m celebrating the release of MESSENGER 93! Narrated by me!

I’m so excited to share the audiobook version of my novel THE DARKHOUSE is now released wherever you buy #audiobooks !! “Mystery, science, and dreams of a better life collide in this must-listen young adult novel by Barbara Radecki.”

Getting new professional photos for the first time in ... years!! I quit acting but need a new author/screenwriter shot. Had so much fun with brilliant Toronto-based photographer Tim Leyes and makeup artist Taylor Johnstone.

Hey hi, if I’m going to social, I’d like to grow writing community and compassionate insights into our chaotic world. 👋🏻

Wishing you all the wishes ✨💫

Full Moon Eve. I haven’t tried to learn how to take a proper photo of the moon. Every time there’s a clear night and a beautiful moon, I rush to try and capture it on my iPhone. And every time it turns out like this. Anyway, I love the #moon and don’t even mind these hazy, lazy shots.

This is how I describe what it’s like to keep a work-in-progress clear in my mind over the months (years) it takes to complete a draft of a story. Over and over, every time I sit to write then have to leave the page. #wip #writing

Need to run something from my WIP by my husband who’s just getting off a full day of working on zoom. Me: Can I pitch you something? Him: You can pitch. But I might not catch. 🤣

Is #amwriting a thing here? Because I #amwriting but man do I have trouble keeping my focus when I’m writing a “bridge scene” (a lower stakes scene I need to write to get the story from action point to action point). Searching for ways to hold my own attention on the page. Hmmm
