There's nothing like reading a review of your work that shows a deep understanding of what you're trying to convey. Much appreciation to @theseaboardreview.ca and @lisatimpf.bsky.social -- and to @flamearrowpub.bsky.social for giving this story a second life. www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/invisible-...

How do anthologies come together? What do you need to know if you're thinking of editing one? Here's advice from folks in the trenches, collected by @lisatimpf.bsky.social.

“Heal the Beasts is written with a generous dose of witty humour, which renders Schott’s writing both personable and enjoyable.” @lisatimpf.bsky.social reviews HEAL THE BEASTS by Philipp Schott, DVM. #veterinarymedicine #history #canlit www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/heal-the-b...

“A resonant collection that celebrates life and nature with vivid and original images.” @lisatimpf.bsky.social reviews a new #poetry collection from Carole Giangrande. www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/this-may-b...

I had the opportunity to review "On Book Banning" by Ira Wells. A thought-provoking read. #bookbanning www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/on-book-ba...

I had the opportunity to review The Teachings of Mutton: A Coast Salish Woolly Dog for The Seaboard Review. An interesting book for those interested in learning more about Coast Salish weaving, the little-known Woolly Dog, or the impact of colonialism. www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/the-teachi...

I reviewed Philipp Schott's Heal the Beasts for The Seaboard Review. Entertainingly written, Heal the Beasts should appeal to those interested in history, animals, or both. Includes a profile of Alf Wight (James Herriot). #bookreview, #veterinaryhistory www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/heal-the-b...

"The book provides multiple perspectives, enabling the reader to see Meyer from different angles: poet, mentor, teacher, friend, and co-author among them." @lisatimpf.bsky.social reviews "Bruce Meyer: Essays on His Works" from Guernica Editions. www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/bruce-meye...

Happy to have one of my short stories appearing in a Tyche Books anthology!

“Analyzing more than 12 hours of video footage, book challenge data, social media activity and secret recordings, The Fifth Estate traced this web of influence to the US, where an anti-2SLGBTQ+ campaign evolved from right-wing campaign rhetoric to laws that threaten libraries in Republican states.”

Happy to announce the release of my speculative poetry collection "Cats and Dogs in Space." Inspired by news stories, myths, legends, and my own experience with numerous cats and dogs that have wandered through my life. #SciFiPoetry, #SpecPoCatsNDogs www.hiraethsffh.com/product-page...
