It’s been a while…
It’s been a few days since I’ve entertained you all with my wit and charm, but I’m a very busy and important lazy person, so you shouldn’t be surprised. I do like to entertain, though, so in place of a one-liner (coming soon, I swear), please enjoy these Disney face swaps that a friend of mine found […]

Games with All Lit Up
I love All Lit Up (the Literary Press Group’s platform for buying, sharing, and collecting CanLit). They have an amazing blog where they showcase a lot of great Canadian talent, and they sell ebooks and print at the publishers prices so the authors get to make more money. For these reasons and more, I’ll be doing […]

I have a new favourite thing
So I was working (I swear) and I came across an amazing thing on Twitter: Sarah Wendell (@SmartBitches) is live tweeting her first read of Grey by E.L. James. I promise, it’s everything you’ve ever dreamed it would be. Exhibits A through K There’s more. Wayyyyyy more. And it’s just so good. And when you get your fill […]
