"I wanted to write a story about anti-heroes and outlaws within the context of reconciliation and reconnection [...]" Tyson Stewart talks to us about his novel THE RETURN OF THE NISH (@cormorantbooks.bsky.social), an Anishinaabe noir thriller about anti-heroes. alllitup.ca/writers-bloc...

We're saddened to hear about the passing of Eugenie Fernandes. She was a wonderful children's illustrator who we had the great pleasure of working with her on "Good Boy Timmy" written by Eric Walters. Our thoughts are with her friends and family at this time.

“White World refuses both the ableist futurity of 'New Pakistan' and the despair of disability as tragedy, instead offering a vision of crip futurity in which survival, collective knowledge, and the building of new worlds emerge.” —Mudassar Javed Baryar & Dr. Saleem Akhtar Dhera

"Pulse pounding adventure, thrilling moments, and a bit of romance make TURNING THE PAGE ON MURDER a standout mystery." Cozy Up With Kathy cozyupwithkathy.blogspot.com/2026/05/turn...

IN CROW'S FIELD ultimately evolves into a powerful tale of redemption, and a painfully accurate portrait of the thankless trials of youth. The inner power that Ana summons in the book’s final moments allows the narrative to coalesce into a satisfying whole. — @quillandquire.bsky.social
