Z. S. ROE is an Ontario writer of fiction and poetry.
He is the author of Broken Reflections, a poetry chapbook about life as a glassworker (published by Plan B Press). His short fiction has appeared in various publications, including The First Line, Joypuke II, and Dark Moon Digest, among others. His short story “Grunt Work” appeared in Workers Write! Tales from the Construction Site, an anthology that won the 2017 Tillie Olsen Award for Creative Writing. Most recently, he won First Place in the Canada Author’s Association’s Fifteen Stories High Short Story Competition with his story “Gums and Gauze.”
Z. S. Roe studied English Literature at McMaster University, and in his final year worked as the Entertainment Editor for the University’s weekly newspaper, The Silhouette (which published his first short story three years previous).
These days he works in glass (more on that here), but spends his early mornings and evenings writing.
He also drinks far too much tea (but who could fault him for that?).
