Born in Montreal, Canada, Jack later moved to the West Coast (Vancouver) to do a doctoral degree that involved collecting many thousand ticks in the Okanagan Valley. He wasn't thrilled about the ticks either. Later, he dabbled in small-scale organic farming for a few years, during which he simultaneously developed an aversion to kale and fancy salad mixes, as well as the realisation that farming wasn't all that lucrative.
Jack has one novel published with Permuted Press, An Okanagan Messiah Cometh, and one novel published with Kristell Ink, The Promise of a Battered Moon.
