Author Profile: 

Christina Myers worked for more than a decade as a full time reporter in the Greater Vancouver region, covering everything from health to politics to parenting and education, before leaving in 2013 to spend more time with her family. She is an alumni of the Writer's Studio in Vancouver (2015) and currently serves as the Studio's apprentice mentor for creative non-fiction. She continues to freelance for local media organizations from time to time while continuing to explore her creative writing. Most recently her writing has appeared on Skirt Quarterly Magazine (online) and she is one of the contributors in the recently published Boobs: Women Explore What It Means to Have Breasts, by Canadian literary publisher Caitlin Press. 

About my kids: 
I have two children, a boy and a girl, who are equal parts mischief and curiousity.
Parenting is...: 
like herding cats, with cuddles and kisses for payment.
We know you don't have a lot, but when you do, what do you like to do in your spare time?: 
I like to read, spend time with family and friends, scour thrift store shelves for vintage pyrex and make people laugh with facebook updates that highlight the daily craziness of parenting.
When are you at your yummiest?: 
When I'm writing, connecting with others, making someone laugh.
If someone wrote a biography about you, what would be the title?: 
A study in imperfection
What's currently in your purse?: 
Lego, bird seed (loose) and sunglasses.
What superhero power would you like to have?: 
Freeze time
If we gave you an elephant, where would you hide it?: 
In my unfinished basement - it'll be years before it's done being renovated so no problem to hide him for a long time.
