Hi! I'm Michelle, a freelance editor based in Ontario, 🇨🇦 I completed my certificate in publishing with Toronto Metropolitan University in 2023 and offer all levels of editing for fiction, narrative nonfiction, and web content. Please visit www.michellenoble.com for details.

I wanna encourage allies to make donations today. Every sexual assault centre in the country has seen an uptick in calls *just* from the trial, let alone today's verdict. I'd also encourage you to support the most effective rape resistance program in the world (based here in Canada!)

Let's take a beat this Canada Day and appreciate this Native Canadian flag designed by Curtis Wilson of the Kwakwaka’wakw. indigenouspeoplesresources.com/products/can...

"My name is Greta Thunberg and I am from Sweden. If you see this video, we have been intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel."

Trump reminds Americans he only promised not to start foreign wars

Trying to get my head round how this could make it to print. Many warning signs for all of us

Despite the horrific SA trials happening in both Canada and the U.S. today, and all the testimony given by Cassie and E.M., women will still continue to be mocked for choosing the bear. But the bear would NEVER. Survivors are not okay today. #BelieveSurvivors

'Tis the season for my "sun hives" to return. Anyone else with a UV allergy have tips to share? (Aside from the obvious one of staying in the shade, where I already spend 90% of my time.) Best sunscreen recs? Remedies for some relief? Help. #SummerProblems #SunSensitivity #ClimateImpact

Very pleased to see @editorscanada.bsky.social make this move!

Video shows Israeli soldiers forcibly expelling Palestinian families from their homes before carrying out demolitions in Khirbet al-Dabaa village in Masafer Yatta, occupied West Bank.

The new edition of @janefriedman.com's book "The Business of Being a Writer" is not just for writers, but has useful insights that we as editors can also use (and for us to pass on to writer clients). Here Jane shares what's been updated. Trust us, you'll want to get a copy of this updated book! ✏️

Geez. My sixth grader's teacher can't even convince the kids to use the communal deodorant spray, let alone litter-train them.🙄

Alberta First Nations issue cease and desist order against Danielle Smith's attempt to create a national unity crisis. Alberta is on treaty lands. Those treaties were signed 30 years before Alberta became a province.

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure. - Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes - We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles - We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

All the Americans in my feed: Phew, good job Canada! Rest easy! All the Canadians in my feed: many stressful things are happening on several fronts

This is STILL TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT. Canada may appear to be more progressive than the U.S., but don't be fooled: far too many people have voted in favour of division and exclusion. We aren't immune. #CDNPolitics #CanadaVotes

OMFG! Specifics TBD, but we seem to have done the good and smart thing. So thankful. @ctvnews-rss.bsky.social projects a Liberal win! #CDNPoli #CanadaVotes

Grateful that gardening is legal in 🇨🇦, because the stress of this election day is truly next level.

Let this be your daily reminder that dystopia writers are not predicting the future. We are merely looking at the present and using critical thinking skills to figure out the dumbest possible way things could go wrong

Voting ends soon. Check the voting hours in your area so you don’t miss out. And if you’re in line to vote, stay in line.

Big day for Canada today! I'm perfectly fine and not at all paralyzed by anxiety.🫤 #CanadianPolitics #CanadaElection #CanPoli

Between forgetting to take melatonin before bed and the freaking 3 a.m. bird rave in the tree outside my window...I am le tired.🫩

Yes, I've seen the account that alleges to be from someone at a literary agency, making fun of queries that come through the door. If real, it's shitty, unethical behavior, also, I just wrote a best-selling book about the moon turning to cheese, so fuck anyone shaming writers for "out there" ideas.

My daughter adores space. "Hidden Figures" is a favourite movie. She watches space education videos every day. And I'm so thrilled to tell her that she, too, can go to space with absolutely no scientific agenda if she simply befriends a billionaire and gets fresh hair extensions. #BlueOrigin

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

*sigh*🤦🏼‍♀️

Absolutely. And I say this as a person with all the damn diagnoses. Bigotry is fuelled by hate and ignorance, that's it.

I beg your finest pardon? ----------- Make art. Make noise. Keep writing. Keep resisting.

If you abduct someone and send them involuntarily and without recourse to a country where they've never lived to be imprisoned, that isn't deportation, it's human trafficking

I have an opening for editing at the end of April. I specialize in speculative, literary, and historical fiction, but I just completed two fun romances. Reach out via DM or submit an inquiry form via my LinkTree to see if we might be a good fit! Free sample edits. linktr.ee/Noble.Editor...

BREAKING — The family abducted by ICE is returning home, per email from Sackets Harbor Superintendent:

Another beautiful morning and I don't have a care in the world. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, the economy is in freefall...oh, wait.

Oh.

Literally, everyone should have signed this. Hamdan Ballal won an Oscar for NO OTHER LAND, which still has no distributor, and he was kidnapped and beaten by extremist Israeli settlers in the West Bank. variety.com/2025/film/ne...

This one should be at the top of everyone's TBR. Read his backlist titles while you're at it. #BookSky #SkyReads

"It is a hallmark of failing societies, I've learned, this requirement that one always be in possession of a valid reason to exist."

The urge to just go back to bed and hide there is becoming mighty strong...😞

Leavitt explains that Pete Hegseth's texts detailing war plans are not classified because Pete Hegseth says they're not classified 🙃

What's the proofreading symbol for "cringe," again? #CanadianPolitics
