edit data

Christopher Pickert lives near Seattle, but when he misses home he has also to choose between Wisconsin, California or Thailand. Besides being a programmer, he often finds himself distracted from writing by his abiding love of music and the outdoors and cinema and honey, so currently he is not allowed any more hobbies (especially since his next book is burning a hole in his head).
