Oh also related to this, please follow/support the @thefoldcanada.bsky.social like they literally facilitated these interactions. They live posted panels this week. I see tons of people jumping down orgs/festivals that do things wrong. Fair. But also let's support orgs doing great. 🖤

One more point about @thefoldcanada.bsky.social Today I had 5 separate Trinidadian women come up to the signing table and say, I thought I was alone. I like SF but I have never seen myself represented. Or, I have tried to write and I have never found a writing group person who understood +

What a joyous evening filled with beautiful words and gorgeous colour at Daniel Maluka's PAINT AND POETRY NIGHT. Thanks to all who came and crafted such inspiring pieces based on Daniel's poems. That's a wrap on Day Five of #FOLD2025, join us tomorrow evening for THE GREAT READCEPTION at The Rose.

I'm going to be at the Rose theatre on Saturday with R.F. Kuang and Amanda LuDuc for the FOLD! This will probably be the biggest group I've ever talked about writing in front of 😅 I'll also be at the literary Cabaret tomorrow, which there may be some tickets left for? Say hi to me if you're there! 😃
