Thanks Beverley Shaw for being the best Booktoberfest booth-mate, yesterday, and hat tips to Susan Leblanc, Sue Murtagh, Shelagh Meagher, and Bryn Pottie for sharing our neck of the Booktoberfest Woods. It was fun! Talking to readers (and their dogs) was a blast. #WFNS #tidewaterpress

Not sure why I put the box on my piano to open it, since it meant I had to crouch to get my face in my phone’s camera frame, but hey, you can’t open a box twice, now can you? Next time I’ll apply some forethought, and maybe even lipstick… ☺️ @tidewaterpress.bsky.social

1/IMPORTANT thread about Bluesky funding and origins. Many folks know that it was seeded by Jack Dorsey around a libertarian vision of a magical network that wouldn’t need moderation because it would be decentralized and baked into a protocol (somehow).
