Candace Kita

One time, I was posing on a car for a calendar shoot. I was doused with oil and literally slid off the car, bikini, heels and all!

I love comics and have since I was a kid. That is what gave me the idea to create my own.

The horror genre is my personal favorite. But then again, I was the kid who read coroner books for fun.

You don't work on something for six years and be blind to the myriad of other approaches.

I generally don't follow domestic news that much aside from how it relates to the stories I'm covering abroad, like what Americans think of the War in Afghanistan.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.
