Ask me how much I enjoyed this collection. Better yet, read my review at @theseaboardreview.ca: www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/reading-we...

Another favourite read of mine from late 2025 was "Mrs. Walford". "Mrs. Walford is a five-star read. If you like the historical fiction of Genevieve Graham, then this is your type of book." www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/mrs-walfor...

It's time to celebrate the release of The Fiddlehead’s Winter issue! Join us Sat, Feb 7, 2–3 PM (AT), in person at the Fredericton Public Library or online via Zoom for readings by Ariadne Asho (our 2025 Fiction Contest winner!), John McNeil, and José Teodoro. @johnmcneil.bsky.social

"Times were different in the early days of Halifax, it seems. I found it amusing to read of the crimes of the day back in the late 1800s-early 1900s: public drunkenness, vagrancy, public nuisances, and so on. These were the ones thrown into Rockhead Prison." -James M. Fisher, The Seaboard Review

Sunny & cold. Blue skies. #nbbluesky #miramichi

Fifteen years ago, I took delivery of this #Lenovo #Thinkpad T510 laptop. A dream of a machine back then, it came with Windows 7 and all kinds of ports. Through the years, it has been upgraded eventually arriving at Windows 10 where it remains. They don't make ‘em like this anymore.

New from @mydangblog.bsky.social and DarkWinter Literary Magazine. Good reading for a cold & dark late November's eve.

I wrote up a review of this most fascinating #chapbook by John Oughton and Nina West. Ms. West interprets John's photos and he interprets her artwork. "...one can sense the enjoyment that each had in completing this ekphrastic exercise." www.theseaboardreview.ca/p/double-vis...

Hey, I'm a "Canadian literary figure" according to an AI search! An honour indeed. 🙂

@alisonburnis.bsky.social I found this olde English poem entitled ALISON (spelled correctly) so I thought I should pass it on to my fave Alison.
