Born in Ontario, Grace Seybold has spent the last decade living in Montreal, Quebec, where she holds a day job as a copy editor for an academic press. She was first published at 17, writing a biweekly column chronicling her student exchange year in Japan for her local newspaper. Since then, she has sold SF and fantasy stories to Tesseracts Twelve, Beneath Ceaseless Skies, Neo-opsis, and several other magazines. She spends much of her spare time doing long-distance bicycle trips and urban hiking. The farthest she has walked in one day is sixty-two kilometres, an experience she does not plan to repeat.
