The ultimate "final chapter" plot twist. Meeting @DaveAlexRoberts and getting our copy of The Barren Grounds signed just as we were finishing the book was surreal @PeelSchools @PDSBIndigenous

Eli strives to protect Misewa & animal being friends from human interference once and for all. Big decisions are made. Excellent ending to series! “We are stories, and as long as those stories are told, no one can ever truly be gone.” @DaveAlexRoberts @DISD_Libraries #bookaday

No Country For Old Men (2007) ends with Sheriff Bell sharing those two dreams with his wife. The Coens stayed true to Cormac McCarthy’s exact final scene and denied any final shootout. The cut to black is perfection.

“If he was lost, that was fine. He’d become used to being lost. He’d become as used to being lost as he had become used to his emptiness, but he didn’t want Hallelujah to be like him. She was too young to be lost.”

Elbows Up! is the #1 book in the country. So incredibly proud of this. Just wrapped up a few events at the Vancouver Writers Festival.
Up next: Toronto’s International festival of authors. See you Thursday, if you’re around. Get the book at your local independent bookstore 🫡

A new study suggests that walking just 4,000 steps a day, rather than the more widely recommended 10,000 steps a day, could be enough to lower one's risk of death by up to 40%. abcnews.link/Y2Kk6V9

Little Shoes by @DaveAlexRoberts is the perfect book for Orange Shirt Day and Truth and Reconciliation 🧡 We made our own Northern Manitoba shoes to honour and remember the children.
