Christopher PattersonChristopher Patterson lives in Tucson, Arizona with his wife, Kellie, and children. A Tucson native, Christopher studied literature and creative writing at the University of Arizona and currently teaches in Tucson. He gained a love for adventure and antasy at a young age and started writing fantasy-adventure stories using his grandmother's typewriter. She would title all of his stories "The Next Great American Novel." His family has always been encouraging and supportive of his craft, and it was in college when he discovered he desired a career as an author and began seriously writing. He has also played the guitar for over twenty years and is active in both the music and youth ministries at his church. Christopher is involved in sports, coaching both wrestling and football, and competing in power lifting. Read More Read Less
