On the 'gram

Once in a while, fantasy and reality get it on and make a #beautifulblackbaby that hits newsstands today! A recurring author-daydream of mine: my agent or publicist calls out of the blue on a random day with amazing news that totally blows my pyjamas off. That happened recently when I got word that @quillandquire wanted myself, @zalikarb and @teamutonji to be the face of the 2019 Books of the Year issue! As a book-parent I naturally already know my offspring ‘Daughters of Silence’ is the most specialest creature in the history of books 😉, but still to have her recognized and endorsed as such by the THE magazine of the Canadian book industry (basically our @poetsandwritersinc) is sweeeeter than 🥧! AND to share this honour with Zalika & Téa of ‘Frying Plantain’ & ‘Shut Up You’re Pretty’ fame? Hello🍦🧁🍫🍩! Okay enough before you have to visualize my happy tears ruining my makeup. Speaking of! Much thanks to Art Director @adriandoran for a relaxed and fun shoot, and @aliayphotography & makeup artist @stephanielemieuxmua for maximizing-immortalizing our #blackgirlmagic ! . Glam is nice and all but of course the whole point of all this is to get you reading, so start gently by checking out our answers to questions on the writing life in the accompanying interviews inside the issue! (Thank you @kerryreads for the wonderful big-up.) Buy a digital or hard copy of the issue from quillandquire.com, @indigo, or indie bookstores like @bookcityto @anotherstorybookship @typebooks . If you’re a loyal member of your local library (like moi), you can also access it free using the Flipster app! But if I were you I’d want my own copies, you know, since it’s a collector’s item and all. Get one copy for reading, one for framing, one for company, one for the cat, one for the goldfish, one for the neighbour, one for the back-home’s, etc. You get the idea 😁 . . . #daughtersofsilence #readethiopian #readcanadian #fryingplantain #gillerprize #shutupyourepretty #writerstrust #readthenorth #bookstagram #wellreadblackgirl #browngirlreading #WRBGBookClub #diversecanlit #blackcanlit #readsoullit #canlit #booksofinstagram #blackwritersmatter #amwriting #amreading #amediting #cbcbooks
At long last, thanks to U of New Brunswick reading, a visit to the offices of my Fredericton-based publisher @goose_lane Got to hang out with Nathaniel & Suzanne and the rest of the amazing staff, signed some copies surrounded by GL books, and scope out where all the action happens! Followed by a visit to local bookstore of course! To sign more copies of course!@westminsterbooks Whoever decided to put my book next to #thejoyofcooking knows me well (if only there was a The Joy of EATING). Next up: reading @unbsaintjohn
You know when you find a dead bird on the road...? Saw a couple outside @beaverbrook_ag but I couldn’t exactly pick them up...
Doing that podium thing again soon, so if you’ve always wanted to visit Fredericton, Wednesday evening is a perfect time ! 😉 . Posted @withrepost • @goose_lane Great things are happening this week!!! #currentlyreading #fallreads #readings #daughtersofsilence #readcanadian #readethiopian #atlanticcanada
@bookhug_press 15th anniversary party of parties, with some of my #booksiblings from @goose_lane 🐣🐣🐣(why are there no goose emoji 🤔 ?#conspiracytheory in progress) . . #FestAt40 #festofauthors
#torontolitup Launch of Launches, celebrating all the fiction, nonfiction, and poetry titles by new and seasoned and marinated Toronto based writers which were launched through the @torontoartscouncil funded program in 2019. Find me at the margin, (talk about self de-centering! 😆). . . #festofauthors19 #festat40
