SF/F author and editor. Biologist, Canadian, and friendly person. Optimism rules me. All you need to know about my books (including links) is at (with bonus silly photos.)
Why yes, I write outside when it's this lovely. (with assorted paper weights because a wind gust took page 233 on quite the trip yesterday...) #writersgetit
Less than nine hours to go!!!!! Plan your nibbles. Chill (or warm) your beverages. (Make sure your tech's ready--we'll all be doing that.) Good luck and great fun to all!!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMO5...
My #fridaybookrec is this fantastic debut novel from @amandasun.bsky.social It features a new arrival to Japan who encounters old magic and myth. Amanda knows the culture and writes some of the best #fantasy out there.
It's #bookqw and how could I #pass up a chance to show #esen and her best friend in action? #sf #aliens #notalwaysmonsters @dawbooks.bsky.social
It's my #fridaybookrec! I've been waiting my chance to share with you the amazing @waub.bsky.social Ta da!!! #sf #nearfuture #postapocalypsedoneright #humanity

Not hard to #decide, this #bookqw...SF and Aliens for the win! @dawbooks.bsky.social

It's #bookqw and #change is everything when you write about magic. And #dragons. Enjoy! #marrowdell
For my #fridaybookrec something exciting, something gritty, something fabulous! #sf @dawbooks.bsky.social @geraldbrandt.bsky.social
It's my #fridaybookrec and I'm delighted to share with you one of the first authors I met in person with a debut book at the same time! So of course I had to buy it and Mary Stanton became a must-have for me. And is a great person. Waves!
It is the day we have dance parties, pool parties, patio parties, deck parties, lawn parties, street parties, and hug smiling strangers who like hugs because whyevernot? Happy Canada Day to all!!
for my #fridaybookrec ...yes, it's an obvious pick, but that doesn't make it any less great! Welcome back to #pern
Some books just give incandescent joy to readers. Thanks @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social for this magnificent "escape."
My #fridaybookrec (where I pull a book from my fav shelf) is this timeless beauty. ::pullsupchair:: So, who here has read it?
Proof I am capable of sloth!!! #vacation #beach #stillthinkingabouthestory Also, back to work now!
My #fridaybookrec comes to you from my "ooohcoolscience" shelves. This is a beauty and I promise it will change, in a good way, how you move through our world.
A brief biz thing. Use Kobo as your ereader? These two titles of mine are now available! Hope you enjoy! (Cover art by Roger Czerneda)
It's my #fridaybookrec and I'm delighted to share one from a fellow @dawbooks.bsky.social author Adam Oyebanji! Superb storytelling and fabulous #sciencefiction
Good #morning! It's #bookqw and I'd like to share a breakfast with cows... #marrowdell #nightsedge #tinycows
It's my #fridaybookrec The stories in it washed away my high school resentment over precis writing and essays about short stories that had to be longer than the short story--okay, some might linger.
We did a whole whack of garden things this long weekend past, but what gives me the greatest joy? The woodland fern (sing) I planted 10 years ago and diligently left in peace has, at last, decided it's time to spread! #wildingtheyard
Every Friday for a few months now I've done my #fridaybookrec because, like all readers, I've shelves (and shelves) of beloved titles I'd love to share with friends. Here's today's!
When your #wildingtheyard project suddenly looks back at you... Can't unsee it!!!
Why yes, we're only working until the temp hits 9C and then it's KICK THE SNOW OFF THE GARDEN TIME, BABY!! #lovemylife #itscanada #startrekrules
It's #bookqw and I knew exactly where to go with #open as the word of the week. #esen #busfish #biology #marinebiology #naturerocks!!! (Yes the cover shows an elegant sleek creature totally unlike the actual barnacle-encrusted giant cod in the story, but hey, it's pretty!) @dawbooks.bsky.social
#bookqw and Esen is never a #pain to revisit. (See what I did there?) My Dear Little Blob comes in myriad alien forms but the one on her first, cover by Luis Royo, is based on the first instar walking stick on my hand. #biologyrules! @dawbooks.bsky.social
