Mark Foss (Editor) Mark Foss is a Montreal-based author whose works include the novels Molly O and Spoilers, as well as essays and creative non-fiction.

Sara Press (Editor) Sara Press is Judith Tannenbaum's daughter, who grew up listening to her mother's raw stories about teaching poetry in San Quentin.
