J.R. McConvey's debut short story collection, Different Beasts, won the 2020 Kobo Emerging Writer Prize for speculative fiction. His stories have been shortlisted for the Journey Prize and the Bristol Short Story Prize, and published widely in magazines and anthologies, including Joyland, The New Quarterly, Taddle Creek and Weird Horror. He splits his time between Toronto, where he lives with his family, and a different dimension, in which he is an eldritch, giant cephalopod, hovering in the cosmos.

A genre-bending noir, and perhaps the squiddiest novel ever written, False Bodies creates a horror/thriller blend of the renowned Newfoundland culture seen in shows like Come From Away with the heart-pounding tension and creeping fear of Alien.
