Bree Taylor 🍉

I have a poem in the upcoming issue of ROOM Magazine! 🥳🎉
Official release date is March 9th, but preorders are open. ⬇️

“You sure you don’t want to do another round of edits before submitting this draft, bestie?”

Seats are still available to brave the cold and hear me talk with @premeemohamed.com about writing and apocalypses and secret other things…. 👀

Very excited to be interviewing Premee about this book, climate grief, and secret other things. 👀

So I (Rebecca) have had some bad stuff happen in my life that has kind of ... Made us not watch horror. But @breetaylor0.bsky.social's talk has me SO HYPED for getting back in. Thanks, Bree.

A new short story of mine, “Skin Jerky” was recently published in the newest @polymorphicmag.bsky.social anthology! Check it out here:

Oh no I have a cat on my lap so I can’t move to my laptop to write my thesis oh noooo how awful

Let’s make it happen!

This weekend at Audreys we will have DOUBLE POINTS for ABC Rewards Members, spot GIVEAWAYS, special PRIZES and to top off the treats the most DELICIOUS GELATO in Edmonton from La Carraia. (caps designed to entrap certain authors, ahem @premeemohamed.com) #booksky #yegindiebookstoreextravaganza #cibd

gender essentialism is a trap... it is pathetic... it is embarrassing that you believe this and it is your responsibility to move out of that belief and impose it as little as possible on the people around you...

the ADHD urge to apologize for existing

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.

Title: Modern Folk horrors of the British Isles Five images of various characters: A coven of murderous witches... Who play loud youtube videos on public transport. An ancient malevolent demon... With a three-hour podcast interviewing entrepreneurs. A flock of bloodthirsty ravens... Who think absolutely everything is "Woke". A primordial shambling beast... Wearing a "Make albion great again" baseball cap. A mob of satanic villagers... Who give bad reviews to books they haven't read.

I think I found my new favourite Zelda NPC. 😭😍

in case you were wondering

Hey with all of this “buy Canadian” as a response to the tariffs, can we also remember to READ CANADIAN.

Canadian publishers will struggle to distribute books to the US, and Canadian authors struggle to get published there. American authors have a much easier time to be published here. Soooo….

Mouthwashing (2024)

Tumblr post by maykitz: reading a book from 1962 proclaiming the tiny percentage of "true" homosexuals should be left alone as a disabled minority but that the real problem is the growing epidemic of socially contagion'ed young people who only feel gay because of societal stress, mental problems and the derogation of women and that homosexual extremists ought to accept the reasonable compromise of not being actively persecuted in exchange for the institution of a conversation therapy-first approach plus laws that protect vulnerable impressionable children from being infected by a trend that will lead to psychological and physical damage

The trans panic is just a rehash of old homophobic ideas, Exhibit A.

The ovulation tracking app, "Ovia", now mandates you identify what state you live in. Delete immediately and warn anyone who might need to know.

I needed a book to kick my ass into creativity despite The Horrors and this one looks good for it.

Escapism = resistance

Oh I’m so down.
