@franeymountain Thanks, Paul.

[Hugh R. MacDonald @HughWriter]

Appreciated this review, from 2017, by Paul MacDougall @franeymountain of my novel, "Us and Them." " Us and Them" is set a few years after the events of Trapper Boy, Cape Breton writer Hugh MacDonald's highly acclaimed first young adult novel.

Each year when Christmas is on its way, I post this song that I wrote for @JoanneFmacd's and my son, Keith. I hope you enjoy it. Joanne and I wish all our family and friends a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thanks @Prof_MacD for doing the video. https://t.co/16xPvbrJU1

This is from a 1992 Christmas Daddies show, but I like the song. 😀 It's one I wrote called, "This Morning Over Coffee."

The beautiful Christmas season is upon us, so I thought I would once again share a Christmas song I wrote for
@JoanneFmacd's and my son, Keith, many years ago. Hope you enjoy.

The Christmas story I wrote was based on the song I'd written, called: "What Christmas is All About." https://t.co/Cx2e8TkwZr The proceeds of the book, which can be found below, go to support Feed Nova Scotia : Cape Breton's Christmas, Book 3 https://t.co/ktEpFwkV5G

I wrote a song for @JoanneFmacd's & my son, Keith, entitled: What Christmas is All About." https://t.co/sUBeDCRXEc Years later, I was asked by Ron Caplan of @CapeBretonBooks to write a Christmas story and it was published in Cape Breton's Christmas, Book 3 https://t.co/ktEpFwkV5G

Check out this excellent book trailer for my friend, @laura_a_best's new book A SURE CURE FOR WITCHCRAFT. https://t.co/cuLTAxsp9S It's published by Nimbus Publishing. Sure to be a bestseller. Just picked up my copy @OnPaperBooks Charlotte St.

[Hugh R. MacDonald @HughWriter]

This is a video of my version of the song, "Trapper Boy" that I wrote prior to writing the novel of the same name. I was very pleased when the Men of the Deeps recorded it on their "50th Anniversary CD, Coal to Gold." Hope you enjoy. Stay safe. https://t.co/m1Cl3dWjBc
