Hey everyone!! You can find signed copies of GHOST CIRCUS at the @bakkaphoenix.bsky.social booth at Word on the Street this weekend in Toronto!!! ❤️📚👻🎪

As a used bookseller, this is maddening because every damn day I see appetite for strange books, old books, indie books, forgotten books. Readers are there. They love to explore the store & buy things they've never heard of. Publishing's biggest problem is that they've forgotten how to sell books.

stopped by @bakkaphoenix.bsky.social to drop off ARCs and sign some Dragonflies!!! living that author dream 🥹🥹

Our solidarity with the Canada Post workers! Please note, however, mail orders will be a bit delayed until this gets fairly resolved.

This is super cool! Definitely worth adding to your calendar if you're in/around Atlantic Canada!

Speaking of @canconsffh.bsky.social , last year's starter pack for panelists, vendors and volunteeers was popular, so I made a new one for this year. Please tell me if you're on programming or helping out with Can*Con this year and would like to be added, or if you'd like to be removed.

So, not-so-hypothetically, if you were going to come see @premeemohamed.com and me "in conversation", what would you want us to converse about?
