hrissy Olinger is a writer, artist, and webmaster who lives in New England. She is currently writing adult fiction under a highly top-secret pen name (neener neener, not telling!), and young adult fiction under her own name.

She was known as "The Movie Muffin" of Reel Reviews for many years, a popular radio and internet film review show. She worked for the government as a language forensics specialist, and still takes occasional work in the field as an independent contractor.

Chrissy blogs weekly at Fictionistas, the hottest spot online for everything cool in YA fiction. She also maintains her own blog. She is an active and enthusiastic member of Romance Divas, The Sceptics' Tank, and many other nerdy organizations.

Her web design site, WebSong, offers free templates, graphics, banners, tips and tricks. She also does custom work.

A four time cancer survivor, she now lives with Pulmonary Fibrosis and actively helps raise funds and awareness in hopes of finding a cure.

Her dog, Max, has a blog that is far more popular than her own, even though he is very lazy about posting to it. She is working on her jealousy. He can write the HTML for his own link if he's so damned clever.
