About the Author

Christina Henry de Tessan has worked in publishing for fifteen years, toiling away as both an in-house editor (Chronicle Books, Seal Press, Night + Day city guides) and a freelance writer before joining Girl Friday Productions, a boutique editorial and writing firm. On any given day, Christina may find herself editing a historical novel, generating snappy copy for a corporate website, writing a travel piece about one of her favourite cities, or doing market research for a client’s book proposal. She loves all aspects of the book business—writing, editing, research, reading, and, of course, other people who share her passion for words.
