Toronto Author/Actor/Filmmaker striving for sensational wonderfulness. She/her. MG/YA author - THE EXPLORERS & #BENDY books! #FNAF: RETURN TO THE PIT 📚 GHOST CIRCUS, middle grade graphic novel, out now!
There are now some signed copies of GHOST CIRCUS👻🎪 over at Indigo Bay and Bloor! Just an FYI for anyone interested 😊
It’s always a risk to get the balconies open and the flowers flowering in this city because the second you do: frost warning. But we couldn’t stop ourselves! The flowers are back and the balconies are clean and gorgeous all thanks to Scott’s mighty efforts!! I just love it all so much! 💕
Went to the island the other day and it was so warm out and the water was so blue and everyone was so happy! I love my city 💙💙
Finished writing my 23rd novel! I can’t quite believe it! But also why does it never get easier writing these things??? Every single book presents new and unique challenges, there is never a singular method to the madness! Anyway this is my celebration: cozy cuddles on a rainy day ❤️❤️
Went to my very first Ice Dogs game last night! My in-laws have been season ticket holders for over 15 years but I haven’t been able to go until last night. Had such a fantastic time! Go Dogs go!! ❤️
Never too busy to read the latest potato book illustrated by the incredible @debbieohi.com and written by @michaelianblack.bsky.social!! Thank you so much for my copy of I’M BUSY! Love it so much! Bravo to the two of you!! ❤️🥔🦩
Last fall I did a “mini session” photographed by the lovely Erin Hurst and ended up with some delightful "dark academia" pics! I was going for a "professor who isn't upset with you, only disappointed if you don't live up to your potential" kind of aesthetic. Think we nailed it! 😁
It has been a year of highs and lows, but I released 3 books this year and I’m so proud of me for that! So I’m going to take this always complicated end of year existential “well that happened” to appreciate: wow, I did that!! ❤️❤️ What is your “I did that” for this year?? #ghostcircus #tickettoride
As of Friday I have written 22 books! Wha?? How did that happen?? This one was definitely a struggle but the feeling you get when you finish a book makes all the hard work, the self-doubt, all of it, worth it! I'm really rather proud! ❤️ Now here's a picture of me holding my fingers like two 2s. 😊
Now THIS is how you handle winter in Toronto! Blissed out in front of the fire 🥰😸
Happy anniversary @scottleaver.bsky.social!!! I love you so much! What a year we have had, but so worth it to end up at this anniversary no longer nomads, in a brand new home, and with a brand new job! We make a good team! Here’s to many more adventures and also to quiet cozy moments as well! ❤️❤️
Oh this is seriously cool! CBC Books has included GHOST CIRCUS👻🎪 in their "13 Canadian books to read with your kids this Halloween" article! I am thrilled and, quite frankly, honoured it is part of such a fantastic list! Thank you CBC Books! @yellghoul.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/books/kids/1...
TOP SECRET: Happy book bday to TICKET TO RIDE: RAILWAY OF DESTINY!! My love letter to spy/action stories, with a huge cast of characters, an adorable dog, & the OG himself: Teddy. What could be better?? Maybe David Miles’s incredible illustrations?? @andrewsmcmeelkids.bsky.social #boardgame
RAILWAY OF DESTINY, book two in my TICKET TO RIDE🚂 series, is out next week!! (Oct 28!!) This book is my love letter to spy/action stories! Was so much fun to write & can’t wait for you to read it! Check out the unboxing video here: vt.tiktok.com/ZSU3NQW2w/ @andrewsmcmeel.bsky.social
Artsy windy selfies taken on a dock by the water at a friend’s cottage are the very best kind of artsy windy selfies!! 🖤🤍
