Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Hooray!! It's a fun bunny book from me, @mikeboldt.bsky.social and the good folks at Viking! This rhyming story is about a little bunny with some very big feelings 🐰 Can't wait for you to read it in 2026!

I received a box of random tea flavours from my wife. This morning was Spicy Chili Chocolate, AKA: a horrible trick.

Read BAD DOG by @mikeboldt.bsky.social to my 4 year olds and we decided while the cat made a bad dog, she was still a good cat. They loved the story!

Unfortunately, due to the snowfall warning for #YYC, I have had to cancel my book signing tomorrow at Owl's Nest Books. Super disappointing. Was really looking forward to seeing everyone again and signing some copies of ELMORE. Stay safe out there everyone!

Hey #YYC folks! I'll be at the amazing Owl's Nest Books THIS Saturday for a festive signing of ELMORE the CHRISTMAS MOOSE (written by the one and only @devpetty.bsky.social and illustrated by myself)! Stop by between 1-3pm to say "hi" and if you'd like a signed copy to slide under the tree.

Awesome gift idea? Yes! There is an Elmore plush which goes with ELMORE THE CHRISTMAS MOOSE- my latest book with @mikeboldt.bsky.social which Kirkus says is: "A delightful Christmas tale that has it all—holiday cheer, joy, and a most persistent moose." It really is sweet and weird and fun.

Looking for a earnest and sweet book this holiday? My new one with @devpetty.bsky.social fits the bill according to the reviews! Thank you, Kirkus!
