Struggling planning out shipping for this next Kickstarter. Minimum shipping costs for even one book seems to be $24. Other options aren't available in my area or are 2-3x Canada Post. How are small businesses shipping things out, especially from smaller towns?

Wanted to write a #solarpunk short story for #ShortStorySunday... was trying for flash fiction but I'm already 1600 words and not even halfway. 1k-5k is easy, but under 1k is so hard for me to write!!

Whatever it takes is OK with me. Go buy books from an indie bookstore & go check out materials from your public library. Put a book in your hand. And drag your friends with you!

Last year half of American adults did not read a single book.

Become a consumer of books!

Wrote another little poem today about all the lovely crows I see around my work. However, I also am a little bit convinced this guy is a raven, but I know he's probably a crow — can anyone tell me for sure? #authorsky #writing #croworraven

Spent so long editing tonight that I'm pretty sure I'm going to see em-dashes and incorrect homonyms in my sleep tonight.

People who have been to reading events: what did you like the best? (I appreciate answers from both audience and speakers!)

Guess who has 2 thumbs and accidentally sent the wrong date out in the email for the library event to ~27 Authors? 😭

Had a beta reader read my Magical Realism short story. Realized I'd forgotten to put magic in it.

Reading so much over the holidays was both great and terrible. I got out of my reading slump and am ravenous for reading again, but also what do you MEAN I can't stay up with my little night light reading until 1am anymore???

#ShortStorySunday! Hoping to finish last week's "Intrusive Thoughts in the Surveillance State" #SpecFic I was working on, and continue a #SciFi I put on the back burner a while ago about an autonomous city that decides to take a day off.

4 things you should know about "We Make the Village":
- All authors are Canadian
- All stories are about community
- Explicitly anti GenAI, the contracts have a section for authors to confirm that they did not use it for their stories
- And it will be launching on Kickstarter!

I will say, staying up late to read a book feels GREAT when I'm doing it, and terrible the next morning 😅

I JUST organized my bookshelf a couple days ago but I kind of want to redo it again 🫣 currently it's just by author last name, but I think I want to have three sections: poetry, non-fiction, and fiction.

I love playing Tiny Bookshop, because it's such a cute little game and satisfies my need to recommend books to other people

Short story Sunday! Today, I'm finishing up a short story about a lab experimenting with a black hole, and hopefully starting a new one about intrusive thoughts in a surveillance state. On a scifi/specfic kick lately :) What are you writing today?

I love writing short stories, but didn't write as many as I wanted to this year. I think for 2026 I'm going to start doing Short Story Sundays. I always host write ins on Sunday, usually 2-3 hours, which is enough time for a short first draft at least!

Which one is your favourite?

I decided to use up a bunch of stationery to make friends some bookmarks! I ended up making 32 of them.

Who else started a new novel in November and is still working on it? I'm about 3 chapters from the end!
