Hello, friends. This past weekend was the Thanksgiving holiday in Canada. I am still coasting on leftovers (that’s a splendid thing, in my opinion), basking in crisp sunshine, and in total denial of the sudden onslaught of Christmas cack in the retail world.
This is not a terribly new video and I can’t seem to embed it here the way I usually do, but I’m linking to it anyway because hey! that’s my agent! Without further ado, here is Rowan Lawton of Furniss Lawton, with her Top 3 Tips for getting published.
Also, I’m reading Peter Carey’s Parrot and Olivier in America. I’ve said this before, but Peter Carey is absolutely bonkers. I’m adoring it. What are you reading right now?

Hey Y.S.
I wish Aussie’s celebrated Thanksgiving. It sounds like such a good holiday! The video is cool. I am currently going through a horror phase. All I can read is blood and gore and guts and I am loving it!
Thanks
Cass

Thanks for commenting, Cass! You’re right about Thanksgiving. It’s not as big a deal in Canada as it is in the States, but it’s a lovely time to reflect, feel grateful, and gather over a terrific meal. As for horror, have you read any Andrew Pyper? He’s way too scary for me but he’s an excellent writer.
