C. J. Switzer loves reading fantasy so much that he has worked for more than a decade to breathe life into his own stories, starting with his first publication: Morvelving. A graduate of Warner Pacific College with a BA in Social Studies, he enjoys studying history, engaging in a voracious fencing bout, and the challenge of bouldering. He lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife, Hannah, and his two dogs, Feanor and Turin, who are experts in tragedy and cuddles.
