In an absolutely devastating ruling, the Supreme Court has allowed the transgender military ban to go into effect. This is shocking - the ban explicitly called transgender people dishonorable for being transgender. It is as clear as day soaked in animus. www.supremecourt.gov/docket/docke...

I am happy to announce that the 8th anniversary of Tagonist Knights Publishing is coming up on May 25th! I started Tagonist Knights Publishing with one book from each genre being represented by the company. Lexia's Legacy later expanded into the Sunfire Chronicles, originally a stand alone novel.

Once you pay off your house, it should truly be yours… Losing a $100k home you've owned for over 30 years because of $2,000 in taxes, should be illegal. WHO AGREES?! 🤚

"Why aren't young people protesting?" Consider—because they all got their shit rocked by police and prosecutors last year trying to stop a genocide, and you abandoned them.

I got an edited manuscript back from a publisher last week... But I was on-call, and a bit too busy to go through it. Now, I get the delight of sitting down and actually reading it, almost as new Squeeeee! I love being able to do this!

If you're heading to Ottawa's independent bookstore crawl today and would like to pick up a book by me, there should be a few at Perfect Books, The Spaniel's Tale (chance of a signed copy at both), and at Singing Pebble. The Tapestry of Time is at Books on Beechwood, Mill St Books and Octopus Books.

To everyone shouting “no one is above the law” referring to that Milwaukee judge: We have a criminal in the White House. A guy who’s proven to be utterly lawless. And you’re perfectly fine with that. So take your “no one is above the law” bullshit and shove it up your ass.

Young people SHOULD “have it easier” than you did. I’m sorry you got the strap up hill both ways and paid your debts with pounds of flesh, but the reason we work for progress is to make growing up and growing old gentler, easier, kinder, freer. Struggle isn’t necessary in a healthy society.
