Stringing words together and hoping for the best
Hi, I’m Cristina, a writer and a bibliophile. My stories explore subcultures through characters with complex motives. My goal is to help people empathize with each other while telling a rollickin' good tale. Here I share my stories, my writing process, and thoughts on all things literary. Enjoy!
