Joe Oliveto began freelance writing in 2008 and now writes full time, which means he can finally be honest at family gatherings when he claims that it is a real job. When not writing, Joe attends concerts, tries to stay in shape, and enjoys beer, which negates that last one a little too much. He resides in New York and also does pretty much everything else there too.
