Robin Sutherland can't remember a time when she wasn't working with words: reading them, studying them, and teaching others how to use them. She holds a Ph.D. in literature and a certificate in Technical Writing, and has worked variously as a university instructor, a writing centre coordinator, and a freelance writer and editor. Also a creative writer, she has published some of her short fiction in Zygote, Room of One's Own, and The Broken City, and has recently completed a collection of stories based on her years as a lifeguard in the Toronto suburbs.
