Brief Author Bio:

I'm a 33 year old communications specialist living in Ottawa, Ontario with my boyfriends and our cats. I used to use BBSes, ran a website called Marigold, and have met a large percentage of my favourite people online.

I am good at:
* Networking
* Improvising meals
* Demystifying political issues
* Giving pep talks
* Cable knitting

I am lousy at:
* Small talk
* Keeping a kitchen clean
* Cool detachment
* Letting go of grudges
* Intarsia

I have worked as:
* An advocate for HIV+ Deaf clients at the AIDS Committee of Toronto
* An ASL interpreter for a Deaf teenager in Canada's smallest town
* The moderator of Canada's the most successful political message board
* The owner/operator of a feminist public relations company
* The Web Editor and the Media Officer of Canada's largest union
* A speechwriter for Jack Layton during the 2008 Federal Election

Synopsis: The Rag Trade

Like a mashup of Pump Up The Volume and Solidarity Forever.
