Books in October!
A Quilting of Scars by Lucy E.M. Black is set in idyllic Ontario farm country, but belies the impact of guilt-wrapped secrets that constrict and consume Larkin Beattie. Black layers scars – physical and metaphorical – and weaves a story where we are intimate witnesses to Larkin’s life. Recommend!

cover of the book Every Little Thing by Janice Landry.
You need (and the world needs) Every Little Thing by @janicelandry.bsky.social. Following her diagnosis of Lyme disease, award-winning journalist Landry celebrates small acts of kindness. Her book shows how connections, 'little things,' and helpers abound and improve our mental health. Recommend!

I had the honour to serve in Parliament with Ken Dryden.
He loved this country.
He was a brilliant writer and one of the great hockey legends.
Thank you for your service Ken.
Canada is a better place because of you.
You are with the angels.

Book cover for Shoebox. A bee, a bullet and photos of an ambulance, a basinette, a lighthouse and boat are in the box.
Shoebox will be out in September! www.seanpaulbedell.ca. A dedicated paramedic faces the aftermath of a fatal collision that darkens his once-passionate commitment to save lives. Plagued by guilt and grief, his job, family, and life are at risk while he navigates personal and professional trauma.

People want us to bring NS Power back under control of the province. I’m not opposed. We can do the following just as good as anyone:
✅ Incompetence
✅ Secrecy
✅ Red tape
✅ Allowing data breaches
✅ Unaccountability
✅ Tax the arse off ya
Looking forward to reading this!
