I LOVE to talk craft so I really can't wait for this event. I hope you can join us! Wed Feb 26! shelflifebooks.ca/events/18250...

Highly do-able.

Speaking of book besties… you can come hang out with @beingkirti.bsky.social and me (and other folks) tomorrow night at @shelflifebooks.bsky.social for Woolf’s Voices! #CanLit #yyc #yycarts #events @newestpress.bsky.social

These were fun questions! Thanks so much @alllitupcanada.bsky.social 💕✨

I'm running a little story writing workshop for a Guides group TONIGHT for kids aged 8-10ish and it's my first time doing anything like this. If you have any fun tips please send ! #booksky

The stunning realization as a mother-writer that my kids are old enough that I could slip away for a writing residency, something I've always dreamed of. Let the application process begin! #booksky

Research suggests public support for climate policy is detached from emissions and economic trends, and instead driven by imagining a thriving, clean economy. 🌱

Love my hometown crowd 💕🎉

Thank you for this kind and thoughtful review of An Astonishment of Stars @thegateway.bsky.social! 💕✨

Casually recommend books by diverse authors. Gift loved ones poetry not written by Mary Oliver (yes, I think she's wonderful too). Read novels that don't happen in locations you are already comfortable with. Shift the centre.

Still over here watching this clip on repeat.

i read One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This and it’s incredibly powerful & should be read by everyone. In the interest of making the words of @omarelakkad available to as many people as possible, we’re taking pre-orders at 40% off at kingsbookstore.ca/oneday

I love Canada’s independent publishers and booksellers, so seeing my book on this bestseller list is such a joy. An Astonishment of Stars is in great company. ✨💕✨ hamiltonreviewofbooks.com/blog/2024/11...

That feeling when someone you know tells you they just started reading your book then never mention it again.
