Read @sharonberg.bsky.social's interview of @carolynrparsons.bsky.social about her novel The Forbidden Dreams of Betsy Elliott (pub. Flanker Press) in Issue 30! ...When I created the character of Betsy, I wanted her to be the exception... www.thetemzreview.com/berg-parsons...

Wrote a book in which there is a war in Canada🇨🇦 & the enemy is the US. Not even sure it's fiction anymore.🥺 #amcanadian #CanadaStrong #CanadaUSTradeWar www.engenbooks.com/product-page...

We're very happy to see Michael Blouin's "Hard Electric" (poetry) on this list, freshly in print! Find it/ask for it at your favourite retailer!

So many new followers! Thank you! #catpicture for fun! Merlin and Capone! #cats

Hey #writers, what are you reading right now? I'm reading "At a Loss for Words" by Carol Off right now. Non fiction about evolving language in these divided times! #reading #writers

Last night my kid attended Colin Mochrie's Improv show, ended up on stage with him doing improv and singing a duet! Here's a snippet! Grab opportunities folks. #opportunity #improv #comedy #singing #martina

Capone gets no peace when breakfast is Merlin's priority! I swear they wake me every morning with a wrestling match over who gets to wake me!🙄

My latest book: www.amazon.ca/Heaping-Coal...

A bit about my author journey for all my new pre-published friends: I wrote 6 novels over 13 years before landing a book deal with Greenwillow/HarperCollins at the age of 45 and publishing 4 books in 4 years. Don’t give up on your dreams!

I'm happy to be here and loving the vibe! #community

For Heaven sake... President Biden!!! 🤨 #DoSomething #DemocratsUnite

It's that most wonderful time of the day, when replete with early morning baby time, I put him down for his first nap and then pour my first cup of coffee and crack open the laptop to write/edit/whatnot. Ahhhhhhh. #writingcommunity

Grey foggy day in the middle of the sea. How's your morning going? I'm coffeeing up for a #writing day!

It was nail day. The colour is cranberry! I love it. Quite festive! #holidays

Heading overseas! Yes I live in an island. #changeislandsNL ! Just a day trip so no #writing today. Taking my MIL for lunch and to the hair salon, then getting a COVID booster shot! #daytrip #ferry

🤣🤣🤣

When it's time, it's time!

I write a sub stack called The Sass if anyone would like to tag along! Typos are all mine. I only see them that nano second after I hit publish! #writer #imperfect carolynrparsons.substack.com

First 100 followers secured! I'm trying to follow everyone back! Thanks. Now I feel pressure to be interesting! 🤣

Hey, have I mentioned that my book of poetry is free for the rest of the week? I have? Well, I'm just reminding you. 😄 #poems #poetsky #writing The Island of Despair a.co/d/1zgW0pj

My current fantasy books! One is a mythic fantasy series with Greek gods & modern heroes, while the other is the first of a Celtic fantasy trilogy about two teen boys told they must save their world from warring gods. Both are on Amazon. 🏳️‍🌈 Check them out!

I'll be posting about #writing and #books and #cats and #coffee. Meet Capone and Merlin My assistants. #catsofbluesky

Okay, the vibe is definitely better here! Everybody seems to be in a much better mood. It's nice to not be surrounded by outrage. This feels like original Twitter. Now to get me 10,000 or so followers! #writers #readers #writingcommunity

I had nearly 4000 followers on Twitter and the thought of rebuilding is daunting. Looking for the #writingcommunity

If you're part of the writing community, could you please holla and RT so we can find each other? I want to build up what we once had on Twitter (but better) #writers #writing

New to Bluesky! I'm looking for the #writers. Follow me and I'll follow you back!
