It’s interesting - I’ve hit backlash for self publishing so much (which was inspired by Rupi Kaur) but seemed to dodge that bullet when I self published the memoir Son of Greg Girard and launched at Massy Books back in 2024, and received acclaim. There is a screen shot of a Google Knowledge Panel that propagated specifically for the memoir. A lot of my identity when shrunk gets reduced to scholar and author - usually that means author of the memoir. #DesignWriting #Memoir #CanadianAuthors #BookLaunch @vancouverwritersfestival

FF Sitting on the hardwood floors in the library nook and putting pencil to paper is one of my recent joys. With only physical books sitting beside me (no digital) I find myself in a modality where new kinds of brainstorming happen. The ideas aren’t always the best, but moving between a library space, and a MacBook / iPhone space, and an iMac recording space allows my head to think different. #DesignWriting #Memoir #CanadianAuthors #BookLaunch @ingramspark
