Great project here- annotated digital archive of literary & visual art representations of Ireland’s border culture, 1921-2024. Collab between TCD & Seamus Heaney Centre Lovely to see Luke's @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social book, Blacklion, finding its place there. imaginebelfast.com/irelands-bor...

Yes indeed, nice to see Luke @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social in there! (Disclosure: we may be related.) Screenshot here as it's behind paywall.

Somehow missed this last month in the Irish Times! Luke @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social in there with some great crime writers. www.irishtimes.com/culture/book...

Luke bravely writing about his injury for CBC News (where he now works): "I wrote two novels, then a traumatic brain injury forced me to learn to write all over again." www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Thrilled for Luke. Heard great things about the launch (and not just from Luke himself!). Great turnout and all books on hand sold! #winwin @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social

One of the last reviews I did for my old site. Right next to your book were those penned by one @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social, who I will encounter this evening. 🙂

Wish my hotel and plane ticket were booked to attend my son's @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social launch in Fredericton, New Brunswick. I guess, I will have to wait for the Irish launch instead (hint, hint).

It was from 3 years ago, my how time flies...so much has happened in those three years! Books, marriage... www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/guest-luke...

Really looking forward to meeting you there!!

There's a high possibility that James might be attending this launch of SAINTS REST by @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social #canlit #nbbluesky

@lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social's neo-noir SAINTS REST (Baraka Books) is a gripping page-turner set in the gritty streets of Saint John, where a P.I. is pulled into a murder case that reveals deep undercurrents of corruption and control. Read an excerpt here: alllitup.ca/excerpted-saints-rest

Great turnout last night for Luke @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social Delighted. I am a tad jealous: flowers, cake & a themed mug. The Write Cup Bookstore and Cafe even had a special drink on sale, a Saint John Fog (Orange Pekoe and Salted Caramel - a twist on a London Fog). And plenty of books sold too!

First launch tonight!!!

Do I like SAINTS REST by @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social? Why yes, I do. Also his two previous books, BLACKLION and FOXHUNT, all from Baraka Books.

Fine review of @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social's new book www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/saints-res...

Fine article from @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social on a great new venture in Saint John www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

ARC has arrived!!

If James said it, it must be true! "Saints Rest" by @lukefrancisbeirne.bsky.social coming in March from Baraka Books. #canlit #nbbluesky #saintjohn

Hello! Branching out into new social media outlets, looking for other writers - authors and journalists. My next book will be releasing in March, a gritty neo-noir novella set in Atlantic Canada!
