Haven’t really posted about this, but my novel LETTERS TO KAFKA is a Heather’s Pick at Indigo. That means, when you walk into any Indigo or Coles across the country, you’ll find my book right there on the centre table. If you haven’t bought your copy yet, you know where to find it!

I have no idea how, 2.5 years after it’s released, my first book has climbed so high in the Amazon bestseller ranks! Nevertheless, thank you to everyone who still continues to read it and enjoy it!

I’m at the cinema to see Hamnet. I had a $30 gift card. Ticket itself with tax came to $17 and then I bought a coffee and a fountain drink… I only have $2 left on the card. No wonder people stay home and stream.

Done!
Put it on your lists for sure.
Vivid description is an understatement. Like watching the film + reading at the same time.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

If Governor Carney thinks he is going to make Canada a "Drop Off Port" for China to send goods and products into the United States, he is sorely mistaken. China will eat Canada alive, completely devour it, including the destruction of their businesses, social fabric, and general way of life. If Canada makes a deal with China, it will immediately be hit with a 100% Tariff against all Canadian goods and products coming into the U.S.A. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Trump’s back to threatening 100% tariffs on Canada this morning, wow I can’t imagine why the Canadians now see the Chinese as a more reliable trade partner
