On November 28, head to @anotherstoryto.bsky.social for the Toronto launch of @drewmcew.bsky.social's new collection tours, variously with guest reader A. Light Zachary!

Attendance is free! RSVP for this stellar evening of #poetry here: www.eventbrite.ca/e/tours-vari....
A poster for the Toronto launch of tours, variously by Drew McEwan at Another Story Bookshop. The background is the dark outline of a corner of the room. The text reads: "Another Story Bookshop and Talonbooks present tours, variously by Drew McEwan with guest reader A. Light Zachary." Next is the RSVP link. Then Friday, November 28, 7 pm. In store, 315 Roncesvalles Ave. Below this are author photos for A. Light Zachary in a small circle and Drew McEwan in a larger circle. This overlaps slightly with the cover of tours, variously (a painted navy corner of the room with interplay of light and shadows).

Just got word that @anotherstoryto.bsky.social has #ChoicesAnthology in stock!!! West Toronto friends, go on over and grab it - and please take pics of it on the shelf while you're there! (Also, if you grab Choices at ANY bookstore, I'd love to see pics of it on the shelves!!)
Red paint background with the cover for Choices: An Anthology of Reproductive Horror on the left. The cover lists the editor, Dianna Gunn, the author of the foreward, Alex Woodroe, and the names of the authors: R Haven, Ondine Mayor, Enoli Lee, Ash Vale, Justine White, Kelli Etheridge, Ava Victoria Black, Allay Rei, Soyam Siddha, Sam Rosewilde, A.H. Davison, Meg Calendaria, KT Wagner, Anne Wilkins, Bogi Takacs, Amanda Cecelia Lang, Elise Scott, Mia Dalia, Raluca Balasa. The right side says: “As the horrors close in around us, we turn to story to process our fears, our desires, and our futures. In Choices: An Anthology of Reproductive Horror, nineteen writers whose reproductive rights are under threat explore the stories of those who, like them, have had their choices stolen from them. These stories serve as a reminder of the power of choice and the importance of fighting for every human’s right to choose their own future.”

Haven’t picked Bad Indians Book Club yet? You’ll want to after reading what bookseller Saul Freedman-Lawson from @anotherstoryto.bsky.social had to say about his reading experience. 🤓 ✨

[Generous, honest, and unlike anything else, Bad Indians Book Club teaches us that many stories from many voices can be more powerful and clear than any one story alone. Welcome to book club: Patty Krawec will double the list of books you can't wait to read.]

I’ve been putting it off because I “don’t have time,” but that’s never going to change so thanks to @anotherstoryto.bsky.social I finally picked up 2 books in @nolore.bsky.social ‘s in Canada in Decline series

For the next half hour I will caffeinate and be horrified by what I read (complimentary).
A latte and books one and two of Nora Loreto’s Canada in Decline series.

And yes they are on Bluesky! @anotherstoryto.bsky.social
Artwork of several green books on a shelf - in between several of the books is a stylized (and out of scale) version of the entryway to the bookstore "Another Story", showing the door, a window full of books, and a pride flag. Below the artwork are the words "Educate - Organize - Resist"
