Shozan Jack Haubner's writing has won a Pushcart Prize and been published in The New York Times, Tricycle, The Sun, the Best Buddhist Writing Series, Lion's Roar and other publications. His first book, "Zen Confidential: Confessions of a Wayward Monk", was chosen as one of NPR's Best Books of 2013 and won an Independent Publisher Book Award. A former (failed?) screenwriter, poet, stand-up comic, and Catholic, he moved to a Zen Buddhist monastery in the early aughts, where he was ordained as a monk and eventually made a Zen priest. Early on, he discovered that Buddhism is fundamentally about "not self." He is still wondering if an exception can be made in his case. His latest book is "Single White Monk: Tales of Death, Failure, and Bad Sex (Although Not Necessarily in That Order)".
