Fictionaut. Wordsmithing my way through a debut novel. Also: eater, reader, dancer. 🇨🇦 Find me in Agnes and True and Every Day Fiction.
I'm hearing that some people are under the impression that we are a bluesky only event, but we are on both Bluesky and X for your pitching convenience. While there are a few bluesky only events that are amazing & well worth pitching, we are dual platform & you are welcome to pitch one or both.
