About The Author

Christopher Prekup has always loved writing and has written some short stories throughout his life but never has attempted to publish them in the past. Science fiction and fantasy have always been the genres written about and created over these years. Growing up in Southeastern Ohio, he studied and played hard as he grew into an adult. He attended Muskingum College where he majored in History and Psychology, initially wanting to become a History Professor. Those designs changed and then attended the Franciscan University of Steubenville where he obtained his Master's in Counseling degree. He married and then moved to North Carolina where he has worked as a crisis counselor in a local emergency room for the past 20 years helping those with mental illness and addiction issues find the help they are seeking. This kept him very busy for several years and then divorced in 2017. After some adjustment, he began writing again and completed the work for book one of the Rigen Cycle. The goal is to have many read and enjoy the story before them. He looks forward to building a core of readers and communicating with them for feedback on the story and characters that have been presented.
