Emma Hill’s Flashtober is an alt to Inktober where you get a one-word prompt every day, and write a 100-word story in response to the word. So if you want to read some flash fiction this month, come to my Substack on the daily. My first post: heatherataylor.substack.com/p/flashtober-day-1-orchard

It does help me, especially to see any repetition or patterns that are buried in scenes. It gives me another and new perspective!

I'm covering #tiff26 for @braaainspodcast.bsky.social & looking for producing partners for two of my features. Would love to meet producers, filmmakers, and other awesome folks at TIFF this year. Are you one of them? #filmmaking #tiff #torontofilmfestival #TIFFTheMarket #TIFF2026

Slightly panicked when selecting my 8 press tickets for TIFF but got a couple of Midnight Madness selections in the bunch & get to support the premieres of Below & Yaga (go Canadian TV!)

Ahhhh!!! REVIVAL SEASON ONE is now on Netflix!! Everyone please give it a watch so we can get a second season (no guarantees, but numbers do wonders for a greenlight). Lucy Mangan from The Guardian loved it, and so will you! #revival #revivaltv #horror #horrortv #netflixseries

REVIVAL, the show I wrote on, gets a second chance to be seen by our fans, old and new! August 24th, all ten episodes drop on Netflix. AHHHH! This could mean big things for future seasons if it does well. So please hit "remind me" on Netflix - it helps the algorithm. BINGE THE SHOW ON AUG 24th!

This week in Tiny Pieces, I talk about nostalgia -- the Neapolitan ice cream of my childhood, my love of Taco Time crustos, taking transition time between projects, and Broken Social Scene, the band that birthed half of Toronto's indie rockers. heatherataylor.substack.com/p/the-power-of-nostalgia
