I had the immense pleasure of sitting down for a conversation with Nicole Little on this episode of HFP. Nicole is a fellow genre fiction author from Newfoundland - Catalina represent! This was an incredibly fun discussion - lots of laughs, lots of insight into Nicole's professional life. I've read two of Nicole's books at this point - Slipstreamers: The Lotus Fountain and Roxy Buckles and the Flight of the Sparrow. Both are great - review for Roxy here and review for The Lotus Fountain here.
Holy Flamingo Poop - Episode 8 - Encanto
I’m back! This is the first episode in over a year (!) I apologize in advance for the sound quality - there was a bit of a background hum from the air exchanger. This bird caca is more on the holy side of things. It’s titled ‘Encanto’ - it’s chiefly a bit about a miracle that I experienced down in Spanish-speaking South America. It also partly explains my absence for the past several months.
I’ve been laying fallow… now it’s time to spread that seed!
Holy Flamingo Poop - Episode 7 - D.M. Guay
It was a pleasure and an honour to speak with D.M. Guay, author of the 24/7 Demon Mart series this month. Her books are absolutely riotous - I’ve read both The Graveyard Shift (Book One) and Monster Burger (Book Two). Imagine Kwik-E-Mart Americana mashed up with Faustian devil-deal hellfire mythology for the first, the second is an ode to zombie film and other media. I’ve five-starred both of them - if you like to laugh, check them out.
But not before you listen to Denise talk a bit about herself and her work. This was a fascinating conversation, and after having spoken with her, I can tell you that her books seem to me to be a true expression of her personality, for whatever that’s worth. Pure authenticity here.

Holy Flamingo Poop - Episode 6 - Legend Of The Silver Codpiece pt. 1
In this episode of divine bird shit, I talk smack about The Bawdy Bard #2, Legend Of The Silver Codpiece, which is dropping June 15. I'm so pumped to send this one into the world - I get into a little discussion about how the story came about, how it relates to the previous books I've written. Also a few brief zingers about the books I've read since the last update.

Holy Flamingo Poop - Episode 5 - Jennifer Shelby
It was truly my pleasure to speak with fellow Atlantic Canadian author Jennifer Shelby for episode 5 of the divine bird dump. We get into discussions of Jenn's inspiration, her life as a nature girl, and a story that left me speechless (for a verbal diarrhea jockey, that's a feat). I feel blessed by the poopy heavens above to have met Jenn and be able to call her friend. She's also a brilliant author - check her out here.
No video on this one - Jenn's a nature girl through and through. Off grid and over the phone.
A personal recommendation: check out The Voiceless Of Shallott, but first listen to the interview and read Jenn’s blog post about it. Very powerful stuff.
Here is one of Jenn’s books, which I have read and reviewed. Check out my review here, then click on the link below to grab your copy if it sounds like a lark.
Holy Flamingo Poop - Episode 4 - Kiss Of The Scarab
In this episode, we talk blue poo. In actuality, we get into the launch of Kiss Of The Scarab: A Ghost Story, the Thoth Quadrilogy, some of the philosophical fluff that goes into it, and I basically provide you with some verbal diarrhea for about a half hour.
Hey, I don't call it Holy Flamingo Poop for nothing.
Check it out here.
Holy Flamingo Poop - Episode 3 - Peter Foote
In the third episode of birdy poo poo, I interview the man, the myth, the legendarily kind and compassionate originator of one my Facebook homes, Genre Writers of Atlantic Canada, genre fiction author Peter Foote. This episode was a lot of fun for me - I was all too happy to have Peter on. Hear us speak about writing, influential books, and more with our man in the Annapolis Valley. Here is a little bio about Peter:
