ONE week ago, I joined 🦋!
Welcome to new writerly pals👋who share this journey✨
I’ll share books, tips, and a bit of humour 😁 along the way.
We write alone… but need community too.
Here’s to stories, connection, and the community we’re building—together.📚

Fall's a season of big prizes & big books📚
What book's at the top of your letter to Santa🎅?

Mine is Pick a Colour (Canada's Giller Prize Winner🍁)--it follows the owner of a nail salon.
I pick the colour Pumpkin Spice🎃🍂😁

Where are you & your WIP on the story coaster?
I may have veered off into extraneous scenery🙄
Coffee first because the scenes won't edit themselves☕☕

Showing up for #SelfCareSunday this morning looking like a Victorian ghost with a head cold 🤧👻
Today’s goal: write one paragraph in my WIP, drink more lemon tea🍋 than coffee, and not fall asleep on my keyboard😴.

Blew past 5am, #woke every ten mins to blow my nose. But, I've seen so many human beings recently doing random acts of absolute #kindness, it truly gives me #hope for the world. November cold sucks, but I'm so grateful to live in Canada🍁

A week ago, I said goodbye to my beloved 13🐾
I like to imagine he's now chasing light itself🔆 But any second, he'll start knocking over celestial coffee cups or glasses—ensuring I don’t read or write too long without giving him attention. ✍️📚

Pierre Poilievre wanted to defund the CBC but I bet he'd settle for just getting #22Minutes taken off the air. More great work from that show with @markcritch.bsky.social (DJT) and The Kids in the Hall's Mark McKinney (Mark Carney).

I know: I'm late. I hosted my local writers' group last night.
Also, some days deserve silence so we can remember why we can speak freely.

Nov 11th #RemembranceDay in Canada🍁& #VeteransDay in the US--a day we honour, respect, remember & appreciate the sacrifices of our veterans.
Sadly, #veterans are needed to confront fascism again in many parts of the world, including Trump's America.

Why Canadian author Louise Penny won’t be going to the U.S.
In March, best-selling Canadian author Louise Penny wrote in a Facebook post that she didn’t feel she could enter the U.S. after its ‘unprovoked trade war against Canada.’ She speaks to The National’s...

"This isn’t how you build a credible opposition. It’s how you run a cult."
Poilievre's transformed a credible PC party into an American-style MAGA cult party. In Canada🍁. 🙄
Right, centre, or left, what Canadians value is peace, order & good government. Not sneering, demeaning bullies😡

Grateful for quiet mornings, the smell of coffee☕, and the way November asks nothing of me—I could read or just stare out the window and wait for words find me.

Yesterday: 1st time I didn't post since joining🦋. My spouse says he never knew humans could bond with a cat like 13 & I did. Still wrecked💔He was my constant bestie. Grateful for all your kind comments & that 13 chose me to be his person.

Today, we say goodbye to our dearest companion, 13🐈‍⬛
For sixteen years he watched over every word I wrote.
One last story shared in silence.

Thank you, my sweet boy. Love you forever💔🐾

No WIP words today.
Spending one last quiet day with my handsome 13—my muse in black fur🐈‍⬛🐾💔.
Today, I'll tell him stories, like how if he covered my shoes, he thought I'd stay home & how he'd casually end up sitting next to tulips.
I'm so lucky to have been his person.

Don't know about me, apparently the clocks changing time are playing havoc with my circadian rhythm. Even coffee ☕doesn't help😵‍💫
Still #AmWriting✍️ though, even passed my midpoint slump.

It must be 5 am somewhere👀. Right, it's Monday....
Unexpected, late writing spurt yesterday.
⏱️to edit new pages before dayjob encroaches. ☕☕
Every writer should have a pet editor—the kind who insists you take breaks or curls at your feet & purrs. 🐾

Clocks turning back means one more hour to savour my coffee ☕ and read a great #mystery — or stare dreamily at falling leaves, or into quiet space. 🍂
An hour returned.
Light lingering.
Pages waiting.
