My book was spotted in the wild! I love when readers send me these. If you happen to spot Out of Tune out in the world, by all means, please send me a shelfie!

When you’re elbows deep in paper mache and your cat decides the epic shark costume you’re crafting looks like a fun tunnel to play in 🙄

Just a few snippets from my favourite reviews of my sci-fi satire, Out of Tune. It currently has 4.78 stars on Goodreads, although I would love more reviews (no, I will not pay for them, but I will send you a free ebook in exchange for an honest review).

Ever wonder how the universe was REALLY formed?

Ever wonder what happens when a millennial discovers the “cutout” and “background” features on TikTok?

All will be revealed in this video.

On this episode of #quoteroulette, I have special guest co-host, Winston, with me to share an excerpt from my #scifinovel Out of Tune. Today’s quote features dialogue from the Mabitu, aka, the Most Attractive Being In The Universe.

Out of Tune has found its way onto the shelves of another local bookshop: Books & Shenanigans. They sell new and used books, puzzles, games, and other gift items, and they are huge supporters of Canadian, local, and small press/ indie authors. #indieauthor #bookstore #canadianauthor #scifibook
