Christina M. Frey grew up writing stories in her head and on every available surface, even when her teacher told her that language arts was over and it was time to focus on something else. Now she works as a developmental editor, helping other storytellers turn their ideas into books of their own. At night she reads for fun, writes her own stories, and ends up going to bed way too late. Christina lives in Maryland with her husband and daughter and their three hermit crabs.
