Two Galleon titles on Naomi MacKinnon 's end-of-the-year standouts, and both book's greatly deserve more readers. JEdson / The Boulevard, and @JakeSwanWriter / Grantrepreneurs. consumedbyink.ca/2025/01/29/hig…

Been working on this book with Jake since the pandemic, and it's complete riot, and weird in wonderful ways. And smart. It also has a huge heart. Initial printing is a lovely limited edition with French flaps. Head to galleonbooks.ca/direct-orders/ (please).
