I just read Envoys of War by @dlawsonauthor.bsky.social. I really enjoyed it! It’s a fun, light-hearted fantasy adventure that doesn’t take itself overly seriously or preach—just great action, interesting characters, witty banter, and a WHOLE lot of snark. I highly recommend! 😀 davelawsonauthor.com

My wife has been stress-knitting lately, while watching news of trade wars and threats to our sovereignty, and designed a hat for me that may well be the most Canadian toque ever. 😁 #ElbowsUp 🇨🇦

Last stop on my #Ottawa independent bookstore tour was @thespanielstale.bsky.social. The staff here are always so nice—you should visit for sure! You can find lots of copies of both Fractured and Mindbender here. Come support an #indie bookstore AND an #indieauthor!

The second stop on my tour of independent bookstores today was @octopusbooks.ca in my old Glebe neighbourhood! If you purchased Fractured (Telepath: Book One) here, you can now find Mindbender (Telepath: Book Two) here as well! Such a great little bookshop. #indiebooks

If you had the power to control minds… take away free will… could you ever justify using that power? What if you only used it on rich, powerful, horrible people—CEOs, billionaires, politicians, oligarchs—in order to save the world? #booksky

Just finished reading Demon’s Tear by @resandersauthor.bsky.social and I gotta say, I was very impressed. It definitely felt “epic”, in the spirit of WoT, with a large ensemble of characters and taking the time to tell the story right. I can’t wait for book two! #BookSky t.co/SSCPFzy68P

Does imposter syndrome ever go away? Book 2 in my series comes out December 10 and I have a bunch of ARCs out but no reviews yet (and I keep checking). I’m dreading that everyone who liked book 1 will hate book 2, and then I’ll have to “prove” myself in book 3. Sigh. #WritingCommunity

In Marvel comics, Kilgrave is a sociopath who uses his power to control minds to hurt and kill people to get what he wants. What if you had that same power? Would you resist the urge to use it? Could the end ever justify the means? What if you thought you could save the world?
