I hate gay Halloween, what do you mean you’re going as Pepper’s rat tail in American Horror Story Asylum?

Hey so when you say GoodReads reviews are not for the authors, why do you directly talk to the authors in your reviews?

Alright. On today, Canada Day, I have received the honour of becoming a Canada Scholar for my literary work.

The award is presented by the Library and Archives Canada -a federal institution that offers the honour to five distinguished scholars annually.

He is such a smug face

His shoulder pads are so massive. Why? So he can look more manly and masculine? Isn’t that gender affirming practice?

I am slowly returning to my social media presence. I think I will only be available here and on Insta. Anyways. If you’re looking to book me for a school visit or bookstore reading in Toronto. I am there and available in May 11-15th. Hit me up!

Book tour is wrapped! Now I can retire back to my office and work on the next thing.

Hand wringing is telling me how to write a memoir, then refusing to accept my boundaries the way I laid them out.

I get to choose who I share my memories with. Your hiccup is that I didn’t perform for your entertainment.

Shame is that the book ended up in your hands. Email me. I will refund you.

I spent 30+ hours reliving this memoir in a studio. I am truly thankful the audiobook is getting some flowers. 💜💜

Okay fine let’s recap:
Since I left the bird app I have released a memoir, got nominated for a Governor General award, received a king’s medal, and toured eleven cities in Canada.

New followers, welcome!

I’m an author of both fiction and non-fiction. I also write for children. I’m known for my focus on Syrian diaspora and the queer refugee experience. I’m also hanging out with my puppies in my lap.

Hey queer authors (especially you, queer authors of colour!)

If you see this, please drop a link to your work! I’m trying to find mutuals!
