Alberta students are standing with their teachers striking for better classroom conditions and education funding — even as the UCP moves to force them back to work. Posts suggest students—and many parents—are ready to walk out if the gov’t chooses this path over negotiation. In Draconim they’d be the Young Dragons; the dragons would back their voices for quality education and the courage to stand up.

🧵 There’s been a lot of chatter about summer reading lists for 2025—especially after the Chicago Sun’s AI-generated list stirred up some well-earned skepticism.

So I figured… why not share a real list?

📚 A summer reading list made of actual books by a real human author—me. Spanning picture books to adult fiction, these stories are meant to be shared, discussed, and remembered.

Working on the third Draconim book led me to the North Pacific garbage patch. It's massive—just one of three major garbage patches choking our oceans. If you haven’t looked it up, please do. It’s eye-opening—and heartbreaking.
