Another Canadian recognized at the ALAs #AmericanLibraryAssociation this year is #JessicaJohns for #BadCree. The #Novel received an #AlexAward for the best 10 books for adults that appeal to children.

Bad Cree is a #horror-infused novel that centres around a young woman named Mackenzie, who is haunted by terrifying nightmares and wracked with guilt about her sister Sabrina's untimely death. The lines between her dreams and reality start to blur when she begins seeing a murder of crows following her around the city — and starts getting threatening text messages from someone claiming to be her dead sister.

Many congratulations to writer Morgan Talty for winning (last night in New York City) the National Book Critics Circle's John Leonard Prize for best first book in any genre. As an NBCC member I read Night of the Living Rez (and the six other great finalists) -- the first time I've read a work of Penobscot literature. Highly recommended. #books #fiction #amreading #writer #bookcritic #Indigenous #Indigenouswriter

ALSO!! For any #indigenouswriter just seeing this today, you don't need a finished script. Just pitch me your concept and if I like it, I can find some time in our production schedule for you to finish it up.

I'd hate to miss out on some rad stories just because of colonial concepts such as deadlines XD
