Ian Sullivan Cant was born in St. John's Newfoundland and grew up in the east end of Toronto. Now he lives in Montreal where he writes, draws, studies at the Zen Centre, and works for the yoga magazine Ascent. Ian has loved independent publishing since he was a kid, but only started photocopying his own zines, as the unkindness of ravens press, after graduating from Concordia University's Creative Writing program, where he studied poetry under the GG award winning poet Stephanie Bolster. Papercut Heart is the result of those years of zine making.
