Merilyn Simonds is the author of 18 books, including the novel The Holding, a New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice, and the Canadian classic nonfiction novel, The Convict Lover, a finalist for the Governor General's Award. In 2017, Project Bookmark Canada unveiled a plaque to honour the place of The Convict Lover in Canada’s literary landscape. Simonds’ short fiction is anthologized internationally and her books are published in the UK, Europe, Asia, Canada, and the United States.

The experience of producing the collection in both a digital and book-arts edition is the subject of Gutenberg’s Fingerprint: Paper, Pixels, and the Lasting Impression of Books.

She shares her life with writer Wayne Grady. They divide their time between Mexico and Canada.
