Q&Q about the project.
Her competition in the category includes Nathan Niigan Noodin Adler for Ghost Lake (Kegedonce Press), Jenn Ashton for People Like Frank (Tidewater Press), Michael Hutchinson for The Case of the Missing Auntie (Second Story Press) and Katłįà for Land-Water-Sky / Ndè-Tı-Yat’a (Fernwood Publishing).
