Cover of "Ottawology" by Tonya K Davidson. Looking up from below a bronze statue of children dancing hand-in-hand past high rise buildings at the partially cloudy sky of Ottawa.
Non-fiction. History of Ottawa as a city rather than as Canada's capital. #booksky

Hardcovers vs. paperbacks: beyond aesthetics and weight, do they change how we interact with a story? Does the format influence your reading pace or emotional connection? Curious to hear how these tactile experiences shape your reading journey. 👀

“A willingness to lose one's self in a story was the first step to learning compassion.”
-American writer Jo-Ann Mapson, born on this day in 1952
In her novels, she writes about the lives of women and how their relationships helped them chart a course through adversity.

I’m so excited to announce I am moderating an Indigenous romance panel at the Bay Area Book Festival! Anyone planning on going?
Last chance! Will you please help advance my flash fiction short story, "The Devil's Dues"? It is a finalist for the Crystal Lake Publishing writing contest.
Psychological body horror at its skin-crawling creepiest. Join as a Patreon member and vote. #bluesky #booksky #horror #writerslift #writers
Stories move me; the actors do not.
Hollywood is like publishing.
Hollywood believes stars draw the crowds.
Publishing and bookstores believe an author blurb by a NYT bestselling author helps sell books.
Both greatly underestimate the viewing and reading public.

Das Cover des Buchs wird auf einem Tablet / Reader gezeigt. Im Hintergrund ist ein verschwommenes Polarlicht. Das Buch: »Vienna 1: Blinding Lights« von Lara Holthaus Text unten: »High Society & tiefe Abgründe«
Im Hintergrund ist ein verschwommenes Polarlicht. Darauf folgender Text: »*Er ist alles, was sie verabscheut. Aber es ist unmöglich, ihm nicht zu verfallen.* Liebling der High Society und IT-Girl - Livia weiß, wie sie sich in der Öffentlichkeit bewegen muss und was von ihr erwartet wird. Ihre Follower lieben sie und als Tochter des Bürgermeisters liegt ihr Wien zu Füßen. Niemand weiß von ihrer Verletzlichkeit, niemand interessiert sich für das, was hinter Livias Fassade steckt. Bis Nicolas, ihr neuer »Stiefbruder<<, in ihr Leben platzt. Attraktiv, arrogant und überheblich lässt er keine Gelegenheit aus, sie demonstrativ zu demütigen. Und trotzdem fühlt sich Livia zu ihm hingezogen. Ein gefährliches Spiel aus Anziehung, Ablehnung und Verführung beginnt.«

A long watercolor painting of African violets. They are purple flowers with yellow stamen ontop of green leaves with small ridges in them. The background is a red gradient with small yellow stars. A green string was used for the tie.
Watercolor bookmark I made for my grandmother, African violets are her favorite plant. #watercolor #art #booksky #plants
