Once a Bluenoser: Stories from Nova Scotia and Beyond

By Melissa Taggart

A collection of tender, haunting, and deeply human stories rooted in the heart of Nova Scotia. From childhood summers in Port Wade to ghostly encounters on quiet rural roads, these short stories explore the echoes of family, loss, resilience, and belonging. With a voice shaped by saltwater and small-town memory, the author honours loved ones lost to cancer, the people who raised us, and the ones we still hold close in the dark.

These are stories about the ties that keep us alive, the spirits that walk beside us, and the porch lights we keep burning for those who never truly leave.
