ⓘ About B.B. Alston
After many years of attempting to break into the publishing, he had just gotten accepted into a biomedical graduate program when a chance entry into a twitter pitch contest led to his signing on with TBA, 25+ book deals worldwide, and even got a film deal. He was inspired to write “Amari and the Night Brothers” since he could not find any fantasy stories that featured Black kids as he was growing up. He hopes that he will be able to show kids that even though you might you feel or look different, whatever the reason might be, your own uniqueness need not only be a source of insecurity and fear. There is a great joy and strength to be found in just accepting yourself for who you really are. Because once you do, you will be unstoppable.
