Julianna Keyes is a Canadian writer who has lived on both coasts and several places in between. She's been skydiving, bungee jumping, and white-water rafting, but nothing thrills-or terrifies-her as much as the blank page. She loves Chinese food, foreign languages, baseball, and television, not necessarily in that order, and will go to her grave swearing that ain't is not a word. She has volunteered in Zambia, taught English in China, and dreams of seeing pink dolphins in the Amazon. It'll happen.
