Writer Christina Tinglof is creator and editor of Talk About Twins, a website devoted to twins and twin relationships. Talk About Twins features in-depth articles from twin pregnancy yoga and how to prepare for the arrival of twins to how to calm a twin rivalry and what to do when twins differ in abilities. Over the years it has evolved into “the destination” for parents of multiples seeking answers to confusing, twin-specific questions such as, “Should we put our twins in the same classroom?” Her roster of devoted readers has helped keep her finger on the pulse of what’s new and exciting in the world of twinning.

Christina’s twin expertise is only half the story, however. Her writing career dates back more than 20 years where she started out as a travel writer. Her round-the-world features and photographs have been published in dozens of newspapers and magazines including the Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune and Westways magazine. She even taught travel writing workshops. After the birth of her fraternal twin boys in 1996 and then a son a few years later, her focus naturally shifted to researching and writing on twins, parenting and education issues. (Besides, with three boys born less than three years apart, who had time to romp around the Tuscan countryside?) Her parenting features have appeared in LA Parent, Central Parent, Kids and Parents, and Parents magazines and she’s a regular contributor to Twins magazine. She’s also authored five books including Parenting School-Age Twins and Multiples as well as the popular, Double Duty: The Parents’ Guide to Raising Twins, whose revised, second-edition hits the bookstore shelves in June 2009.
