Things to Know About Christain:

-I currently reside on the Isle of Wight in the United Kingdom, a small place cut off from the rest of the country. It is somewhat like the Village from The Prisoner but without the sinister brainwashing (I hope).

-I possess an unhealthy obsession for all things Sherlock Holmes. So much so that I own three copies of the same book, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. We all do silly things when we’re in love.

-I have a fond memory of once meeting Neil Gaiman, a very nice man who greeted me as a ‘fellow writer.’ I’m still thinking of a way to put that event on a T-shirt.

-I’ve always had a great interest in writing, but for a brief time when I was younger, much to grown-up me’s disbelief, I wanted to go into football/soccer. It is a period of my life that I cannot explain.

-The first story I remember writing was about some kid detectives who stopped a pair of ghosts from stealing buried treasure. Clearly, I’ve never been one for genre boundaries.
