Cristina Martin is a Cuban-American author born in Miami, Florida.

Shortly after 9/11/01, she moved to New York City and began to write The Automat.

She is currently based out of Los Angeles and completed her second book, I Still Love You, NY, which incorporates both Los Angeles and New York City. It is a modern comedic romance about two jaded characters who hold out all hope to reunite after eight years and 3000 miles apart.

Cristina's next book is a collection of comedic short stories.


“The city was a machine of its own, continuously producing. We were constantly pumped out through its assembly line, in different forms or models. We came hardwired with different stories, dark secrets, vices, and defects. Over time, we fail and come to find our end, but the city continues onwards.”

All of their dark wool suits began to mesh into one, and they began to rhythmically march in unison, all while I gazed at the sliver of sky that seemed to be pressed tightly in between the skyscrapers. I kept on walking and staring at the sky, and I began to notice the skyscrapers becoming larger and larger, and before I knew it, I had to turn to get to my building, and of course, the automat.”
