Robin Riopelle

Things to know: I type faster than I think. Faster than I talk. And I talk fast. I never leave wine in the glass. I like rain. I like to watch people play Scrabble. Although I can draw, write, dance, and cook, I can't balance my chequebook to save my life. I talk to myself, often in public. I fell in love through correspondence. I read non-fiction more often than fiction. I'm addicted to cooking shows. I regularly kill houseplants. I have two mothers and a long-lost sister.

I write fiction every day. As of April 2013, my novel Deadroads is looking for a new publishing home.

Robin Riopelle is my birthname, the one on the certificate.
