About Me

I’ll save you from all the boring details like my favourite colour and high school crush. All you really need to worry about is the basics.

My name is Christine. I break up my very valuable time working in a pizza shop where I don’t make the pizzas (so don’t even try to blame me for their quality) and a bookshop that would pay me really well if I didn’t use it all to buy more books. I also show up at university for my creative writing degree every now and then and pretend to be a good student.

I’m silly enough to try for a career at writing. While there are many very practical and realistic options I can take I have of course decided that realistic is boring. Why not be a travel writer? Ignoring the fact it’s not a good or reliable source of income, very few actually achieve financial security and, of those few, nearly all are better writers than me. But who cares. It’ll be fun anyway.

I also have generalised anxiety disorder with side of severe depression and obsessive compulsive disorder tendencies. It isn’t fun. I’ve tried my best not to have anyone know, up until now of course, so this is extremely difficult. Just writing this paragraph has caused me to have three separate anxiety attacks, not even the bits after, I mean the first two lines of this paragraph was the furthest I got until three attacks later and I had something to write.

If you have any questions about me, don’t be afraid to ask. If its odd I’ll probably answer it more likely than the boring ones and if it’s too personal I will still answer it but there will be a very good chance I’m lying to you.
