Media Tie-In Scribe Award Winners Announced
The International Association of Media Tie-In Writers has announced the winners of the Scribe Awards for 2016.
“Our books are original tie-in novels, comic books and short stories based on existing characters from movie, TV series, books, games, and cartoons… or they are novelizations (books based on screenplays for movies and TV shows).”
The IAMTW is an organization for authors of novels and other published material that tie into an established franchise, such as Star Trek or Lost. It serves to help with education and networking for authors that write tie-in fiction, and makes efforts to enhance the professional and public image of tie-in writers. The Scribe Awards recognize excellence in licensed tie-in writing.
