About the Author

Christopher's writing accolades began at the age of 7 when in the second grade, he was awarded a class prize of "best author". This was the same year he learned to program a computer. His first professional writing job was crafting a humor column for an internal newsletter for Intel Corporation, inheriting for a short while the pseudonym Cal L. Kent. It was nice to be paid well for writing, but he also learned the importance of having a good editor when a bad editing job ruined every joke in his third column. His short story, The Push of Man, appeared in Kizuna: Fiction for Japan charity anthology in 2011, the proceeds going to a charity benefiting orphans in the area of the devastating Tsunami that year. Also in 2011, he had an article published in 2600: The Hacker Quarterly under the pseudonym Johnny Fusion =11811=. In 2014 he published Programming Concepts for the Non-Programmer, and of this writing has earned a total of $38.16 in royalties. His current projects include developing a comic book series and continuing work on a website devoted to Jedi Philosophy. His hobbies include Aikido, sword-fighting, skateboarding, playing Go, performing music, walking his pet bear, Sadie (who due to her mastery of Jedi Mind Trick appears to be a small, black dog made of awesome), and writing his own biographies. In 2017 he earned a Knighthood in the Organization California Jedi.
