My very first Publishers Marketplace announcement! I'm unbelievably excited to bring this story about trans rage, werewolves, and evil bigots getting what they deserve to you in Fall 2027!!

Publisher's Marketplace announcement. Reads: Petra Skelton's TWO STICKS AS TINDER, a horror debut about a trans teen abandoned by her family to an alt-right conversion camp and the monstrous transformation she accepts to free herself and fellow queer youth from harm, to Tamara Grasty at Page Street Kids, in a nice deal, for publication in fall 2027, by Morgan Wilson at Belcastro Agency (world).

As wildfires burn across Canada, the Carney government is plowing ahead with plans to list a West Coast tar sands pipeline as a "project of national interest." Use 350 Canada's online tool to flood the public consultation before September 18! share.nwmd.social/s/HLvmYCk6

ICE agents raided the family dormitories at the Dilley detention center and snatched this Bluey coloring page from a child before they could finish. I sued ICE to get these drawings back. You can what they sent me here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-e...

Erling Haaland and the rest of the Norwegian men's team are paid the same as the women's team. In 2017, they took a voluntary pay cut to allow the women's pay to be increased. The move came from the players' union, not management.

So… (I heard about this on the radio just now) Soccer players get red-carded for covering their mouths while saying something nasty to an opponent [new FIFA rule, apparently]. What they don’t get a red card for is saying something nasty. ?? 🤦‍♀️

The thought of releasing the final book in a series is scary. 🫣 I hope my readers like it! I hope it is satisfying, and maybe even makes them cheer. (For the characters, I mean) Coming soon: Gatekeeper’s Revelation. The final book in the Gatekeeper trilogy-in-five-parts.

I am an Albertan. I am an Albertan by birth. I was born at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Edmonton. I am an Alberta by family descent. My paternal grandmother's cousins - the family advance party - arrived in Edmonton before 1905, when Alberta became a province. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli 🧵
