Today, I wrote to Pascale St-Onge & François-Philippe Champagne (FPC) 🇨🇦 to tell them that Canadian creators and publishers are counting on them to fix the Copyright Act & stop great Canadian content from disappearing. Please join me! #cdnpoli

Wow! Thanks to R. Graeme Cameron for his gratifying review of my novel Indigent Earth in the magazine Amazing Stories. A discerning and thoughtful look at the novel, and very much appreciated. I'm so glad you liked it, Graeme! amazingstories.com/2023/12/clubho… #SFF #SFreviews #newbooks

Well, I've never seen an ask quite like this one.

Too good not to share. 👏🏻

I took a minute over Christmas to drop in on the Douglas Coleman Show and talk about my books. Good timing for spending that Christmas money you got. 😉 youtu.be/eFI-ZNS5J8U #SFF #newbooks

It was a real pleasure to join Peter Anthony Holder on The Stuph File Program this week. A quick, concise interview too. You can hear the whole episode (including other cool guests) at podcasts.apple.com/.../0751-fiona…... or my interview on my website scottoverton.ca/media-appearan… . #SFF

Sadly, my next book isn't ready for pre-orders yet. But this does look like a great way to save on the newest books from your other favorite authors (and Linwood Barclay should be on that list!) #booksales

It's nice to have an Up Close and Personal interview in the January issue of Top Shelf magazine, exploring my writing process, the social context of my latest novel Indigent Earth, and more. How would I shape a future society? Take a look. #SFF topshelfmagazine.net #booknews

COVER REVEAL: And I'm pretty excited about this one. "Oceanus" is science fiction adventure due out in May. A team of specialists descends to the ocean depths to find the source of a blast of energy that cripples a jetliner. #CoverReveal #SFF #newbooks

Libraries are essential. And the Canada Council Public Lending Right program is a godsend.

My buddy Dave's books are all great reads at any time, but when you can get them at 50% off, that's real treasure.

Here's a super deal on some fun reads from my friend Mark. Pick up the whole series (so far)! (I've had a good time being the 'voice' of the audiobook versions.)
