Author Information

C.A. Gordon credits his contemporaries H.G. Wells, R.L. Stein, and K.A. Applegate for inspiring his cool writer's name. The product of two artistic journalists, he spent countless hours reading, listening to, and, occasionally, writing stories as a youth. He did that for fun. He also wrote hundreds of repetitive compound sentences and in-depth research papers. He did that as punishment. Born in Seattle but raised primarily in northern San Diego County, Gordon attended Montessori preschool, spent his elementary years in the GATE program, and successfully passed the California High School Proficiency Exam (CHSPE) at age sixteen, which enabled him to exit high school two years early. As a high school freshman, Gordon had the privilege of working for the City of Oceanside at the Mission Branch library. As a sophomore, Gordon co-created, edited, and contributed to the Pacific View Charter Point Blank newspaper. Later, he wrote movie reviews and penned the ""Detective Dude"" column for the MiraCosta College Chariot while working in--where else?--the campus library. Gordon is most at home when surrounded by words and the people who love them. During his pursuit of a degree in criminology and forensic science, Gordon realized that he enjoyed fictionalizing the struggle between Good and Evil more than investigating it. A lifelong fan of comic book Capes and Masks, Gordon eventually decided to stop playing superheroes with his friends and actually become one. But he couldn't do it totally alone, so he reached deep inside his own psyche and created five separate personas, each based on a facet of his personality during adolescence. Then Life happened, and he spent the next twenty years working, skating, dancing, and, in his spare time, writing. Gordon currently lives with his wife and their pug in the San Francisco North Bay. He thinks it's just as beautiful as San Diego, only with a vastly wider variety of colorful birds and trees.
