The silver winner in this year's #NMA20 Fiction category is @stellaabrenda for "Bad Cree" published in @GrainLitMag. Congratulations! https://t.co/Yx3BfjIkOE
Also: if you aren't already on the lookout for @stellaabrenda, @notvanishing and @kylejeddie, who are all INCREDIBLE Indigenous writers who won Silver at the NMAs tonight, you should fix that now. They're all so damn talented and care so much for community. Congrats!!!!!
