Sage Hill is mourning the loss of Steven Heighton. His generosity of spirit touched many writers at Sage Hill & beyond. Sing-a-longs with him were epic. Grateful for the memories. Sending energy & thoughts to his loved ones. Rest well, Steven. Photos @CdnShieldCarla @lisakuzma

Happy happy pub day to LETTER TO A STRANGER! I was lucky enough to read this baby in manuscript form and can attest to its exceptional and diverse reading pleasures. With starred reviews already from @LibraryJournal @PublishersWkly @ShelfAwareness. Get one while it's hot.

Live theatre is back! Such a treat to sit in the dark with strangers and watch LIGHT @tarragontheatre by the supremely talented Rosa Laborde. Highly recommended.

Thank you @cbcbooks for including my intergenerational trauma memoir Kiss the Red Stairs: The Holocaust, Once Removed on your list of Canadian non-fiction to watch for this spring. It means a lot. cbc.ca/books/39-works…

Sitting on 8 deal announcements, twiddling my thumbs, waiting for the opening bell tomorrow for publishing to begin again! The book business is booming & I'm choosing optimism this year. I'm choosing to celebrate success. I'm choosing to clap for everyone's wins.

Loss, what's that? Those two hands which once held mine now holding up a blanket of snow—does this qualify? Frankly, all I can say is I've been to a funny place inside myself, where simple answers fall like ashes through an iron grate. Yusef Komunyakaa

If only the Catholic Church cared as much about Indigenous children as they claim to care about fetuses.

My book! My ACTUAL dream come true!! She has a spine! And heft! And 282 perfect pages! This is just the ARC - it still needs to be proofed before the final printing (for her Sept. 7 debut), but I AM EXPLODING WITH JOY! ✈️💌📒 @bookhugpress #LettersToAmelia #AmeliaEarhart
