Sharon English was born in London, Ontario, where, for
a while, she excelled mostly at memorizing song lyrics and episodes
of Star Trek. She eventually studied English literature
at the University of Western Ontario and at the University of British Columbia, where
she dropped out of a Ph.D. program to pursue fiction writing.
Since then she has held various jobs, and now works as a teacher
and freelance editor in Toronto. Uncomfortably Numb is her
first book.

The Porcupine's Quill is remarkable in Canadian publishing in that most of the physical production
of our books is completed in-house at the shop on the Main Street of Erin Village.
We print on a twenty-five inch Heidelberg KORD, typically onto acid-free Zephyr Antique laid.
The sheets are then folded, and sewn into signatures on a 1907 model Smyth National Book Sewing machine.
