This book is delightful! If you’re in Glasgow you should go to this launch.

I was just told that my launch event in Glasgow was going to be cancelled because I don't have *enough* tickets sold. Humiliating—not least because I worked my butt off for this book & went to other people's launches. If I could sell a few more today, maybe I could change their minds. Please.

Yeah all of my books are there and this is one more reason why I'll never pay for a stupid checkmark.

New blog post! www.rachelreidwrites.com/news/theshot...

Canadians on social media are acting like we won our eternal sovereignty by winning a hockey game.

Cheering for Jordan fucking Binnington because nothing makes sense anymore.

I don't think jigsaw puzzles should be a competitive sport. It's too bleak, guys.

Next on the March 2025 LibraryReads Top 10 is THE SHOTS YOU TAKE by Rachel Reid from Carina Adores (Harlequin).

I’m going to tell you about my worst/most embarrassing Valentine’s Day. In 2002, I was 21, finishing my undergraduate degree at Mt Allison University, and my boyfriend was doing his masters degree in Ontario.

I’m closing my Shopify store at the end of this week because the CEO suuuuucks. Last call for Centaurs shirts and sticker packs. rachelreid.myshopify.com

Announcing my new business venture: Col. Rachel’s Old Fashioned Nova Scotia Bourbon

I’m doing a solo writing retreat this weekend but, like, are books even going to still exist soon?

DEI invented every kind of music in your playlist.

Dude, we don’t have time for this right now.

This AI “weather assistant” is super fucking helpful.

My book "The Skin We're In" was published five years ago today It's still the most meaningful writing I've done, and I'm grateful it was published and continues to be read The paperback, e-book, and audiobook (read by yours truly) are all available here: www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/536075...

Authors, post something related to your WIP without context.

congrats again @rachelreidwrites.bsky.social I can’t wait to see how they fit their egos on a screen

For years I’ve seen it stated as fact that Heated Rivalry was originally NHL fic even though it never was. Has anyone read the supposed fic version? No, because it never existed.

Are you guys ok if Game Changers book 7 is just, like, fun?

Bra is: off Edible is: kicking in Time for: hockey

I’ll bet no one has Danny Aiello’s ‘Papa Only Wants the Best For You’ in their head as often as I do.

Hi friends, doing a lil fundraiser for disaster relief in CA and VA. Donate $5 or more, submit a receipt, get a link to a bonus story (~2k) for one of my books. We're at almost $700 raised so far.

I’m so tired of stupid, evil people.

Singing up for PRIME so I can watch the HABS GAME because I am an IDIOT.

All the Habs had to do tonight was beat the worst team in the league and they didn’t do it.

I didn’t have a new release in 2024. I needed to take a bit of a writing break, so I did. I want to sincerely thank everyone who bought my books, or recommended my books, in 2024 because my earnings didn’t go down at all! I appreciate my readers so much! Take breaks if you need them, authors!

A reminder that one sure-fire way to push back against the sea of hopelessness and horror is to find a cause you can contribute to with your time and/or resources, if that’s an option for you. Personally I find it’s most beneficial when it’s something hands-on and in my own neighborhood or city.

I used to volunteer every year for a charity that collected gifts for underprivileged families and then flew them all over the state. My job was usually sorting and wrapping. But one year, I was asked to help out on the runway, and my brain chemistry was forever changed by what I learned...

I decided to have a very chill Christmas this year and it feels weird to have nothing to do in these days leading up to it.

Parkinson’s Disease is making me bite my tongue in my sleep. Is there a thing I can wear to help with this or do I have to cut out my own tongue?

This is going to make people NOT give blood.

Tremulous whisper: “go Habs go?”

I can’t believe 2025 is going to be the year of “Is the polio vaccine good?” think pieces.

Canada gets a two-month “sales tax holiday” starting tomorrow and it’s such a baffling mess. How are any retailers supposed to figure out what tax they should be charging? Look at some of these rules!

Age yourself with a movie you saw in the theatre as a kid

I started writing Game Changers book 7 spring 2023. Then I abandoned it. Then I decided to change it completely. Then change it again. And again. And again. And now I have decided to go back to the original idea because it was good, actually. My writing process is BAD.

Drop the lock screen It’s from a Hallmark movie. The female MC can’t believe the male MC has never made a s’moresman before (???) and then they made…this. And I actually thought I was going to die from laughing.

I just signed up for a Parkinson's study that required me to sign a document electronically using a mouse and that just seems mean.

Christmas tip: make a quick butter rum sauce and put it on fucking everything all December long.
