  • Wait for signs

    Creator

    Johnson, Craig

    Abstract

    Ten years ago, Craig Johnson wrote his first short story, the Hillerman Award'winning 'Old Indian Trick.' This was one of the earliest appearances of the sheriff who would go on to star in Johnson's bestselling, award-winning novels and the A&E hit series Longmire. Each Christmas Eve thereafter, fans rejoiced when Johnson sent out a new short story featuring an episode in Walt's life that doesn't appear in the novels; over the years, many have asked why they can't buy the stories in book form.
