Award Nominations for Justin Alcala

Two great pieces of news. First, "A Dead End Job"(future work) was a finalist for Speculative Literature Foundation's 2019 Diverse Writers Award. Second, "Consumed" has been nominated for the H.W.A. 2019 Bram Stoker Award. Pretty cool.

One Speculative Literature Foundation juror had this to say about "A Dead End Job"...

"This reads like a neo-noir mixed with a hefty dose of dark humor, and I'm loving it. The story grabbed me initially, and I liked the personification of Death and the little, nerdy details that make the author (and the characters) genuine. -- There is a strong hook here, and will grab the right reader, and the positioning is unique."
