Moose House Tales Volume 1
November 24, 2019
We had a treasure trove of submissions of short fiction to our first anthology, and after a hard struggle selected 24 stories by 18 writers.
We are launching our anthology on Sunday, December 8, 1-4 pm, at the wine bar behind Bainton's Book Store on St. George St. in Annapolis Royal, NS. About half of the contributing writers will be there, so it will be a great opportunity to collect some authographs!
The First Moose House Book!
June 1, 2019
Moose House Publication is delighted to announce that its very first book is Brenda Thompson's Tales from the End of the Old Military Road. The book is imaginative and engaging stories about West Dalhousie, a community on the South Mountain of Nova Scotia, about 10 km south of Bridgetown. As Brenda relates, the significant story of the area goes back to way before the start of human history.

Publisher Launches New Book
June 1, 2019
Moose House Publisher Brenda Thompson is also a best-selling author (A Wholesome Horror-Poor Houses in Nova Scotia). Today she releases her latest book, Finding Fortune, the untold story of Annapolis Royal's Rose Fortune.
Rose Fortune started life as a slave in the American colonies that became the United States, came to Nova Scotia as a young woman, and had a remarkable career as a businesswoman, entrepreneur, community leader, and perhaps the first woman police officer in Canada.
The book launch is at the King's Theatre, Annapolis Royal, from 3 to 5 pm on June 1, 2019, and is hosted by the Historical Association of Annapolis Royal. Signed copies of the book will be available, and the author will read excerpts from Rose's adventures.
