An unusual tale about a travelling salesperson who turns down the wrong road, only to realize maybe it was the right road… redemption, loss and weird energy abound!

A new short has landed! So thankful to have “Confidants” published by the @SatEvePost this weekend. A story about grief and chalk drawings. #fiction

“The staff had drawn hearts and crosses and We Miss You!s on the coffee shop’s front windows. But Annie’s manager said it was not okay for Annie to draw a gang of meerkats.” From @suzannejohnston’s “Confidants”: https://t.co/RDsgrAhpcJ

At once a witty & touching memoir about the Asian immigrant experience & a harrowing & honest depiction of the vagaries of mental illness, a gut-wrenching & beguiling manual for surviving family & oneself.

Listen to an excerpt from @lindsaymwong's THE WOO-WOO #AsianHeritageMonth

I wish authors could get three close friends to blurb their books. “She was very depressed when she wrote this but she did it! We’re very proud. She has no other skills so we worry. Please buy this so she’ll stop talking about it.”

The struggle is real! #writerproblems

I have a story coming out soon that was rejected 86 times over five years. But you know what they say in the writing world: 87th time's the charm!

Love when old folks go to parties and bring their slippers with them. I wanna end up like that. Bringing along a Sobey's bag with a pair of slippers in there.
