Just a short post for a little happy dancing news. Yesterday I was pleased as punch (like cranberry juice mixed with champagne and sparkling water, served with frozen raspberries) to be mentioned in the Apartment 613 article on local books to read in Ottawa.

BUT not only was I in the article, which is wonderful in itself, I was also at the top of that article in the ‘personal favourites’ section. *Katy-Perry-Bra-Fireworks-Explosion-of-Excitment!* If you live in Ottawa, or even if you don’t (since many books are online), do check out the round-up of novels, poetry, and graphic novels.  Read here: http://apt613.ca/apartment613-holiday-book-gift-list-for-2013/

So, that basically made my night. Hopefully that feel-good momentum can carry through to this weekend, after the next Vitamin C infusion. It’s really wonderful to be part of the Ottawa writing scene. I hope soon I can say I’m part of the Canadian writing scene – would that not be amazing?

Okay, happy news bulletin officially over!

Except for this little widget! I’ve got a book give away on goodreads 🙂
