John Vigna’s debut story collection, Bull Head, has been described as “the arrival of an important new voice in Canadian fiction: tough, supple, tender, and resonant.” John is a graduate of the MFA program at the University of British Columbia and an alumnus of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. His fiction and non-fiction have appeared in numerous newspapers, magazines, and anthologies, including Cabin Fever: The Best New Canadian Non-Fiction, The Dalhousie Review, Grain, Event, sub-Terrain, and The Antigonish Review.

Lee Henderson is the author of two award-winning books — the story collection The Broken Record Technique and the novel The Man Game, which won the BC Book Prize and the Vancouver Book Prize in 2009. Lee’s fiction and art writing are regularly published in The Walrus and Border Crossings magazine, and other short stories have appeared in numerous magazines and journals. Lee is an associate professor in the Department of Writing at the University of Victoria. Please visit www.leehenderson.com.

John Gould is the author of two books of short stories — including Kilter, a finalist for the Giller prize—and the novel Seven Good Reasons Not to Be Good, described by the Vancouver Sun as “a marvel of delicacy, depth, and insight . . . a damn-near perfect book.” His fiction has appeared in literary periodicals across the country and has been adapted for short films. John teaches writing workshops at the University of Victoria and elsewhere, and serves on the editorial board of the Malahat Review. Please visit www.johngould.ca.
