My debut novel, A Broken Winter, has been shortlisted for Kobo’s Emerging Writer Prize for 🇨🇦 writers. Having this unconventional novel, featuring a cast of LGBTQ characters, even be considered gives me hope for us all. #writeLGBTQ #LGBTbooks #ownvoices kobo.com/ca/en/p/EmergingWri…

Please don't use the Tumbler Ridge tragedy to fuel gross & wrong generalizations about #LGBTQ people, ppl with mental health disorders, or harmful political agendas. Please remember: there are victims & survivors fighting for life. Lives have been devastated. Send love not hate.

This is why you need to be reading books and writing your own emails, by the way. When you outsource your thinking abilities, you risk turning your brain into soup. Heavy dependence on AI has already been linked with severe cognitive decline. What you don’t use, you will lose.

We’re facing an ever-worsening literacy crisis. Millions of brains have been scrambled by conspiracy theories & short-form videos. Curiosity is dying. Our collective intelligence is sinking into the gutter. The solution is to read. The solution is to read.

Neurodivergent friendship is a funny thing. You can find your people and have amazing connections with them, but be too overwhelmed with life to stay in touch, but miss them dearly and feel lonely, but be too burnt out to even send a text. 😩

On our street, everyone is welcome. Together, let’s build a world where every person and family feels loved and respected for who they are. Happy #PrideMonth!

So many writers confuse chronic low self-esteem with imposter syndrome. They're not the same thing. If you can read a positive review or fan mail without thinking "this person is fucking with me" or "this person is having a mental health crisis", you don't have imposter syndrome.

What's the karmic retribution for cursing an invasive plant? Asking for a friend.

Only my anxious brain would break the "you can't read in dreams" rule specifically to peruse a full page of editorial feedback (for something I didn't actually write), containing the phrase, "This is the worst sentence I've ever read."

I’m seeing a lot of “RELATIONSHIPS WON’T HELP YOUR MENTAL HEALTH” posts, and while this is true in some cases, I’d like to add that a GOOD relationship SHOULD support your mental health. This also applies to friendships. If someone doesn’t support you, they’re not your person.

I hate how intuition can be indistinguishable from intrusive or anxious thoughts. I woke up at 5:30 this morning to prep for the Berkley sub and got slammed with, “DON’T BOTHER, IT’S A WASTE OF TIME.” Felt terrible and went back to sleep. Now it makes sense. #writingcommunity

As someone who's never seen Night Court, I always assumed it was about a bunch of vampire lawyers. Rather disappointed to discover that's not the case.
