Jennifer Quist

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

I'm the author of "The Apocalypse of Morgan Turner" (Linda Leith Publishing 2018), "Sistering" (2015) and "Love Letters of the Angels of Death" (2013). I'm also a lecturer, critic, editor, journalist, poet, and talker in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. "Love Letters..." was long-listed for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award in 2015. In 2014, it won me a Lieutenant Governor of Alberta Emerging Artist Award. It was also a finalist for the 2013 Whitney Award. Sistering was long-listed for the 2016 Alberta Readers' Choice Award and was awarded best novel of 2015 by the Association for Mormon Letters. My first book-length non-fiction Translingual Creative Writing Theory, Practice, and Pedagogy: Daoism and Decentering the Monolingual Workshop is forthcoming from Bloomsbury Academic. I lecture at the University of Alberta in the Department of English and Film Studies.
