An avid reader from an early age, Christopher is a self-taught writer with a deep, abounding love for storytelling across all media. The greatest inspirations of his childhood and adolescence came from the stories written by Cornelia Funke, Eoin Colfer, and Rick Riordan, though he has since developed an appreciation for the works of Mark Lawrence, Naomi Novik, and Brandon Sanderson. Greatly influenced by his past love for poetry, Christopher endeavors to instill a sense of poetic narration in his style, believing it to be the greatest vehicle for wonder and beauty in the literary arts. When not writing or reading, his favorite activities include singing with his ukulele, playing tabletops, learning how to swing dance, and dreaming about finally getting that dog he’s always wanted
