This has to be shut down, not amplified by opportunistic politicians.

Count on Me (Ann Cavlovic) Tia is a single mom raising a child while grappling with aging parents and a brother who is taking over their accounts, house, and medical decisions. Set in Canada, this is a gorgeous novel about family entanglements, mothering, and trying to survive in a complex world.

Alberta folks, this "personal is political" panel and the whole WWC lit festival shall be good for the soul...

Half of the US hates the other. Hard to solve any big American problem until they solve that one. Great to see 🇨🇦 on the right end of this list.

Renee Nicole Good, 37, mother to a six-year-old boy, was murdered by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, a few blocks from her home. She was also a prize-winning poet.

"Cavlovic’s debut novel provides a thoughtful perspective on the possibilities for overburdened mothers to shape a better world, placing attention on the urgent question of 'how to raise children so that fascism could never again take hold.'" heavyfeatherreview.org/2026/01/07/c... #cyclebreaking

A little late, but tensions between love and money seem to (unfortunately) stick around in our news. My fictional treatment of that in a family was discussed with Shawn as his "mystery guest" a few months ago!
