25 Things About Me at 25

by Myshara Leta

At the beginning of 2023, I realized that I should share more about myself here. I don’t want to ramble on about myself either, so I’ll just make a list. And because I turned 25 last November, I’ll think of 25 things to say!

1. I am writing more than one novel at the moment, but focusing heavily on one over the other.
2. My dream is to be a stay-at-home mom and author.
3. I have over 1500 books in my house between my collection and my partner’s.
4. I am slowly evolving into my true kitchen witch form.
5. I have a photographic/eidetic memory.
6. I have been trained as an editor and would love to edit books for authors one day.
7. I’m a huge Star Trek fan.
8. I have a ton of silver/grey hair at my temples and I’m in love with it.
9. I’m a Vancouver Canucks fan against my better judgement and I don’t watch any other sports.
10. My comfort meal is shrimp spaghettini with bacon caesar dressing.
11. I can knit, crochet, sew, and bake.
12. I don’t drink coffee, only tea. Earl Grey. Hot.
13. I have a BA in English and Creative Writing from Thompson Rivers University.
14. My favourite movie is The Princess Bride.
15. I have anxiety, depression, and trichotillomania.
16. Criminal Minds is my favourite TV show.
17. I’m the Social Media Manager and Reviewer for the British Columbia Review (www.thebcreview.ca).
18. I’m autistic and have ADHD.
19. I have a cat named Valeria.
20. I struggle with procrastination and executive dysfunction.
21. I’m a Dungeon Master for Dungeons and Dragons.
22. I LOVE pineapple on pizza.
23. My favourite artists are BLÜ EYES and Arcana (find them on Spotify!).
24. I very rarely drink alcohol and never in large quantities.
25. My goal for this year is to become an editor.

Whew, that was much more difficult than I thought! I highly suggest doing this yourself, even if you don’t show it to anyone. It’s a great way to get to know yourself.

Thank you to everyone who read through this list. I hope it was interesting!
