“In Canada, sales of books by Canadian authors represents less than 15 per cent of total book sales. The average income of writers from writing alone is firmly below the poverty line.” A good reminder that investing in Canadian books & writers is investing in Canada. www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

I am part owner of a new craft distillery here in B.C. Our Charm Vodka is better than Tito’s. Tito’s is on the list of products no longer available in B.C. (I have the list.) Time to visit our store. 🇨🇦 maps.app.goo.gl/HMb35SSknhrJ...

There's such a tone of sadness to the CBC reporting right now. Adrienne Arsenault says, “I feel like the whole country, all of us, are getting both a history lesson and a politics lesson and an economics lesson and a lesson in heartache.”

Just a reminder that the crime fiction novels at reboundpress.com are not just written in Canada, but are also produced here. When you buy a book from reboundpress.com you're not just supporting the CDN authors but the Victoria typesetter, Edmonton graphic designer and Burlington printer.
