Vincenzo Ravina is a writer, and a journalism student at the University of King's College.

His favourite punctuation marks are the semi-colon and the tilde. He keeps
lists of interesting words, names and phrases. He never deletes emails
and has trouble throwing things away. He brushes his teeth so hard his
dentist was all like, "Slow your roll! Your gums are receding!"
Intense.

His worst fear is Alzheimer's. His favourite animal is the giraffe. His
second favourite is the penguin. He staunchly believes that Superman is
better than Batman and would beat him in a fight. If it isn't in the
Oxford English Dictionary, it isn't a word.

He used to be a magician, and sometimes he still is, but it is really, really rare.

Sometimes, late at night, he will get itchy feet and walk to the local
24-hour Sobeys and have his blood pressure checked.

His website, IHATECROCS.com, has been
mentioned in Newsweek, Radar Magazine, Maclean's Magazine, The
Washington Post, The New York Times, Slate, Salon, CBC Radio and The
Christian Science Monitor, among others.

In his spare time, he writes short stories and long stories.

He lives in squalor.
