Celebrate Pride With FVRL
June is Pride Month, a time to honour the history, achievements and resilience of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. At FVRL, Pride is more than just a month-long celebration; it’s part of our ongoing commitment to inclusion, representation and creating a welcoming space for everyone.
Why I Prioritize Diverse Voices in My Reading
I love reading books by authors from diverse backgrounds and perspectives. I try to keep an open mind and seek out stories that reflect a wide range of life experiences. For me, this means being intentional about not limiting my reading to authors of a single ethnicity or worldview.
Audiobooks Count as Reading!
I absolutely love listening to audiobooks. I listen while I'm driving, making dinner, doing housework, and even when I go for a hike. Audiobooks have brought me hours of entertainment and allowed my busy mind to take a break with something enjoyable.
Free Comic Book Day!
On Saturday, May 3, we will celebrate Free Comic Book Day, an annual outreach initiative of the North American comic book industry.
