Michelle Zink: 10 fabulous facts!

1. I was born in Northern California and spent most of my adolescence in Southern California.
2. I’ve lived in eight different states, and until the house I live in now, had never lived in one place longer than three years.
   
3. I’m secretly addicted to a game/app called Covet.
   
4. The fact that this is a fashion game and I spend 80% of my time working in pajamas is an irony not lost on me.
   
5. Cats.
   
6. I cry easily in movies (and even commercials) but will fight valiantly to make sure no one sees me doing it.
   
7. I’m a bit of a foodie, but I rarely measure anything. This results in recipes with instructions like, “Then you just throw some balsamic in there…”
   
8. I’m not a great everyday friend. I forget birthdays and generally just drop off the earth for long periods of time. But if you need me, I’m there.
9. Prophecy of the Sisters, my first published book, was my fifth complete project (aka Keep Writing).
10. I’m a huge movie junkie and see at least one movie every Friday with my teenagers. Whoever is with us gets to hear our post-movie analysis. Whether they want to or not. ;)
