edit data

JIM CHRISTOPHER is an author of thrillers, suspense, sci-fi, horror, and urban fantasy. In this writing, Jim calls on his diverse background and interests to create surreal stories around believable characters in extraordinary situations.

He lives in Decatur, Georgia. His work history is a crooked path, meandering from stagehand, audio engineer, carpenter, cognitive psychologist, behavioral researcher, musician, software developer, learning sciences advisor, to whatever he might do today.

To relax, Jim crochets, builds tiny houses, walks his dog, reads, and tries to stay active. His guilty pleasures include laughing, petit fours, and end-of-the-world movies.
