Definitely ordering this novel to add to my reading list!! 😃. Seeing Rosslyn Chapel is on my bucket list!!

Next up on my tour of #canadianauthors is Doug Jordan’s “The Treasure of Stella Bay!” Based on Amherst Island not far from Kingston, I’ve driven past the ferry to the island plenty of times but have never taken it! Now I’ll have to for sure! #books #independentauthor #reading #author

Okay! Finished @authorandie.bsky.social ‘s The Mermaids Wrath and - WOW! What a wonderful, engaging novel! Andie, your characters have depth, your action scenes are engaging, the love scenes… 🫣. And through it all runs the messaging of how much damage we’re causing the oceans & hope for the future!

Beautiful sunset at Port Elgin!! Perfect weekend getaway!! 😃

Had a great day trip into the heart of #Toronto & spent the evening on the Islands enjoying the amazing sunset, great #diversity, the #love, and a beautiful garden of bumblebees!!

This year I signed up for the Pride & Remembrance Run 🌈🌈. I can’t attend in person, but big thanks to my friends who were able to make it out to our 5k replacement! All the more important as the people full of hate continue to be given loudspeakers and platforms to spew their vitriol. #happypride

Emotional music makes it easier to remember, but whether we remember details depends on how strong that emotion is. 🧪 #scicomm www.forbes.com/sites/evaams...

Picked this gem up at Agricola Street Books in Halifax!! Loving it! 😃

This book sounds awesome! Might make it onto the reading list next!!

Canadian writer Michael Crummey’s “dark, enthralling novel about love and its limitations” was announced as the winner of this year’s Dublin Literary Award.

It's easy to think it's a problem of the past & the gays should just get over it. But did you know that here in Canada last year, 77% of 2SLGBTQ+ youth were physically or verbally bullied, and that 27% thought it might be better to take their life because they think no one in the world loves them?

#PrideMonth #LGBTQ+ A day late, but I'm always late to the party. I always stay to the very end, though, AND I'm always having a great time! 😁 Happy LGBTQ+ Pride Month

So excited!! Just got @authorandie.bsky.social’s book: The Mermaid’s Wrath. I’m only three chapters in and it is right up my alley!! Loving it!! Andie’s writing has pulled me right into the characters, the setting and the story!! #book #clifi #climatechange #CanadianAuthor #writing #reading

The popularising of books remains a key objective, and its opposite – the sidelining of reading – an ever-present threat, says Philip Jones in this week's editor's letter 👇 # BookSky

“The film delves into not only the homophobia that kept Ride from coming out but also the pervasive sexism the first women astronauts faced.” New documentary about Sally Ride, pioneering American astronaut. www.advocate.com/arts-enterta...

What a fantastic night last night with fellow @canadianauthors.bsky.social Toronto members!! We know how to take over a pub! Ramona vaulting out of the pub windows into a black SUV that had just rolled up and then speeding off will be a hallmark in my memories for a long time to comee!! 😂
