A Little Bit of Attitude

Robin StevensonI just finished a week of lying on beaches and listening to live music in Cape Breton, the beautiful Nova Scotian island where I was born and raised. I always love spending time in Cape Breton, but this year I had an especially fun trip because I got to revisit some of the places that inspired my upcoming middle grade release, TOTALLY UNRELATED.


TOTALLY UNRELATED, about a family of musicians living

Quotes by Tom Ryan  (?)

“The thing I've never understood about dancing till now is that it only looks stupid when you're on the outside, watching other people do it. When you're part of the crowd, moving along with everyone else, I can't imagine anything else being quite as much fun.”
Tom Ryan, Tag Along

“You’ve grown up,” he says, smiling. I hate it when adults say this kind of shit. How am I supposed to respond? You’re looking older yourself?”
Tom Ryan, I Hope You're Listening
