John Gould, BIS 1981 This page was last reviewed on October 25, 2011   

John Gould is currently a sessional lecturer at the University of Victoria for its Department of Writing, and a published author of a number of books including Giller Prize nominated Kilter: 55 Fictions, a book of short stoires and Seven Good Reasons Not to Be Good, a full-length novel available in 2010.

"John Gould is not just a great short story writer, he is simply a great writer. ... By the end of the novel, [Seven Good Reasons Not to Be Good], Gould has done a masterful job of reminding the reader that there is a whole lot in life that you have no real control over but what is important is to remember that life is happening, here, now."

~ Colin Holt, Times Colonist, August 22, 2010
