Paul Rapsey's fourth novel, Deadly Sea Weed , is scheduled to be released in early 2025. As with his first three novels, the story is set in small town Nova Scotia along a famous tidal  river.  If you have read any of his earlier works, you will discover several of the same delightful but flawed individuals. Paul's fictional stories are as much, or more, about the interesting characters and relationships as they are about the mystery that slowly unfolds. Written in an easy conversational style, the stories are a blend of whimsy, sadness or tragedy, dry humour and inspiration.                                                                                       Draft cover, c. 2024

The revised film version of "Desperarely Seeking Samuel" (Paul Rapsey) was jury selected recently for showing at the Dream Vision International Film Festival 2024.

Just finished the Listing Lighthouse...really enjoyed it.  I read it very much as if being told a tale round the campfire...right there in the telling but like an Agatha Christie, trying to solve it, looking for clues etc...just present waiting for more to unfold.  I liked that. TJR

The Little Wooden House is a simple, tender but poignant story. Two fine performers, actor and musician, sitting on wooden stools in a bare hall brought the story to life last night for the spellbound audience. There were no fancy sets, or lighting. This was raw theatre of the best kind. As one audience member said: " One would expect to see this on major stages in large world centres, but to have it offered in a small community in Nova Scotia is truly amazing ."  Bravo Paul Rapsey and Alec Frith.
