Lots of news from Jean-Louis Trudel 

Jean-Louis Trudel reports the young adult novel Le maître des bourrasques (Master of Squalls) authored by "Laurent McAllister" (a pen name for Jean-Louis and Yves Meynard) is one of three finalists for the Prix jeunesse 2007 de science-fiction et de fantastique québécois, the winner of which will be announced at Quebec City's international Salon du livre (book fair) on April 11. The winner gets $1,000.

Jean-Louis's essay "Looking for Little Green Men" was translated and published in the Danish publication Proxima (issue 84), a fanzine or academic publication put out by fans since 1974.
