About Me

THEY CALL ME ISHMAEL.

Wait, no they don't. My name's Christina.

And I hail from the hot and muggy South, where I lived an uncomfortably sweaty existence in Florida with gators for neighbors and cicadas producing an ever-present soundtrack to life.

After graduating with my BA in English and a Minor in Creative Writing, I took a break from the hurricanes and malaria-ridden mosquitoes to cross the continental US and the Pacific. All the way to the land of the rising sun. I lived and worked in Japan as an English teacher, gorging on sushi, sickeningly cute everythings, and the kind and wonderful company of the Japanese for a year and a half before returning to the States.

Then the hot and salty winds of Florida swept me East, over the Great Pond, to the land of the Queen Majesticus herself (England to be boringly specific) for my MA in Creative Writing at Bath Spa University. After having my fill of tea and biscuits, gray skies, and the ineffably polite and passively aggressive British, I returned.

On this blog you'll find my musings on my life as an aspiring writer, the journey to publication, the passions that propel me, and the little tricks of the trade that have helped me along the way.


MAY THE MUSE BE WITH YOU, 
MY FELLOW WORDFOLK.
