A native of Kyiv, Ukraine, but living in Canada since the age of eleven, Nick Voro discovered literature at an early age, never quite mustering the ability to put an excellent book down. A recent graduate of the Toronto Film School, Nick divides his time between being a full-time parent and a full-time author.
His debut work, Conversational Therapy: Stories and Plays, has recently sold over 200 copies and is part of the library system (United States, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Scotland).
The book received positive reviews from the likes of João Reis, a Portuguese writer and a literary translator of Scandinavian languages who has been longlisted for the Dublin Literary Award (2022) and Oceanos-Prêmio de Literatura em Língua Portuguesa Award (2019) as well as shortlisted for the Prémio Fernando Namora Award (2020).
Lee D. Thompson, an editor and writer from Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada, edited this short story. His books include: a novel in [xxx] dreams from Broken Jaw Press, Mouth Human Must Die from Frog Hollow Press and Apastoral: A Mistopia from Corona/Samizdat. His short fiction has been published in many anthologies, including Random House's Victory Meat, New Fiction from Atlantic Canada and Vagrant Press's The Vagrant Revue of New Fiction. He is the winner of the David Adams Richards Prize (2018) and New Brunswick Book Award (2022). He is the publisher of Galleon Books.
