‘I read 40 years of X-Men*, what’s 20 years of One Piece’ <== things said moments before disaster.
I think if I sell one more story or piece this year, by the end of the year I’ll be at 40 pubs? That’s unreal. ♥️

i have been frothing at the mouth for this book and it's FINALLY HERE
Today is the book birthday for Rostam Wrecks The Realm by the wonderful Olivia Abtahi. This is an amazing middle-grade novel that combines djinns and ancient Persian heroes with space travel. It's got a lovable hero who screws up and does better. A fantastic read! bookshop.org/p/books/rost...

Watching folks give publishing advice on Facebook is always so interesting. Some of it is very relevant! Some of it feels like it’s coming from someone who has never been in a bookstore?
Sometimes the biggest win of the day is just breathing through it.
Hey Vancouver and area locals — wanna see some damn good theatre in a few weeks? Come see Cabaret. This is a new theatre company, doing a show filled with such passion and frank relevance. (Not local? Share this so locals can find it!)
Hey, know who is a cool small business? @meerkatpress.bsky.social Meerkat bought a short story of mine in 2017 — my first ever sale. Since then, they’ve supported my every win. They expressed interest in a novella from me, and 5(?) YEARS LATER, i sent them twice spent comet. They loved it. 💫
