welcome to

CHRIS’s World…

Hi, I’m Chris. Writer. Frequently distracted - mostly by one very cute dog with a clear agenda against productivity.

Driven by equality and diversity. Writes high-stakes dystopian sci-fi with a completely unnecessary (and completely essential) amount of romance.

GET TO KNOW THE AUTHOR

What’s the first thing you’d search for in a zombie apocalypse?

Grab some golf clubs, a large knife and look for food and medicine to stockpile…


Which character (you’ve written or read) are you most like?

A mix of Erin’s Mum from Derry Girls or Mrs Weasley from Harry Potter - oh dear…


Which fictional world would you survive in and which would destroy you?

As long as I wasn’t Dauntless in Divergent, I’d be fine. Not sure if I’d survive in the Hunger Games world and I’d never survive if I was picked.


What’s a trope you secretly love? Or love to break…

Enemies to lovers of course… I also love the love triangle and am a complete sucker for the self-sacrificing hero trope - that’s my favourite of all!

What’s the story in one sentence?
