VANESSA ZUISEI GODDARD is a writer and Zen teacher based in New
York City. She trained full-time at Zen Mountain Monastery from

Shugen Arnold Roshi, abbot of Zen Mountain Monastery and Head of
the Mountains and Rivers Order. For the last ten years, Zuisei has

silence to transform our lives.
PADDY DONNELLY grew up on the beautiful north coast of Ireland,
surrounded by mythical stories of giants, magical creatures, and
shape-shifting animals. All of this prompted his love for nature,
animals, the sea, and storytelling. His work has achieved
international acclaim as he was nominated for the Kate Greenaway
Medal 2022 and shortlisted for the World Illustration Awards in
2018.
