Chris wrote his first novel, an unpublished Star Trek story, while in high school and has been writing ever since. The first book in The Terran Empire series, The Way, was published in 2011 before he began PhD work. He plans to complete the final two books in the trilogy, The Truth and The Life, once his PhD is complete.
"Stickler" is a college nickname that he picked up in a drama ministry in college. A group leader looked at his last name - St.Clair - and transformed it to Stickler on the spot. The name was fitting enough that it stuck.
