As an unknown Canadian author w/ no editor, designer, agent, publicist, or publisher, getting reviewed (during COVID no less) in a well-known honest-to-goodness print magazine w/ a long history like Literary Review of Canada feels like a major coup.
I'd like to thank #Anthuor.

As a indie blockchain publisher ( http://lostbooks.ca ), this also speaks to the moment #cryptoart is having, where #NFT creators are finding ways to directly reach & engage w/ audiences who want their work, instead of relying on intermediaries.
This is the future.

Side note: Brad's review speaks to my life experience while writing the book
During the height of Trump-era lies, I was working counter- #disinformation for a web platform, non-profits, & several governments.
Shit was both very real & unreal

Probably not a many fantasy authors have dealt w/ the shit I saw on a daily basis working in counter- #disinfo & I hope they never have to.
Still, it taught me a lot about truth, lies & the very real need we all have for "self-indulgent" #fantasy!

Super duper excited so many people are finding out about #Quatria from this epic review in one of Canada's foremost literary print magazines

Also check out this podcast interview I did w/ @Spherical_Pod & @MysteryHarvest where we go into great detail about Ancient Quatria, and its myths & history & explore these issues of fantasy & reality https://someothersphere.podbean.com/e/episode-50-timothy-boucher-and-jeremy-puma/
Pick yourself up a copy of the Oracle of the Hypogeum we discuss in that podcast ep while you're at it, why don't ya?

In closing, just like I say about #cryptoart, just make art for one person - even & especially if that person is you. No shame.
Because the deeply personal is always going to be universal & we each have our own way of finding #Quatria.
Let your destiny find you!
