About Andrea Warner
Andrea Warner is an arts and entertainment journalist who, quite possibly, worked the strangest assortment of jobs ever before throwing it all aside to pursue writing full time in 2008. These jobs included, but weren't limited to, a stint doing quality control for chatlines, writing horoscopes for Soap Opera Weekly, and numerous call centre management jobs.
A few of her favourite things are: magazines, Rilo Kiley, Carol Burnett, cheese, Wes Anderson movies, Zadie Smith novels, Alice Munro's short stories, her husband's eyelashes, dogs that feel like soft teddy bears, New York and Madrid, sex positivity, drinking, and gambling. Her least favourite things: Anything Twilight-related, sexism, corporal punishment, stinky-feet cheese.
She archives all of her published work on her blog, The Writerly Life. And, even though she currently rejects Four Square, she fell hard for Twitter's succinct allure.
