The youngest son of a linguist with forty-seven unique dictionaries on his shelf, Simon’s excavation of the English language was mandated almost at conception. Mercifully, it all stuck, as a divine infatuation with storytelling manifested sometime after high school and shoved him into the theatre scene in Vancouver, BC, where he worked as an actor for a while, then as a successful playwright, director and journalist for eighteen years. His devotion to the craft and mechanics of story migrated to the world of publishing upon a move to Vancouver Island in 2010, and he has been digging into the architecture of the novel ever since. Simon considers the opportunity to help other authors build their work in their own particular and wonderful voice to be humbling and truly awesome.
