edit data

C.J. (Chuck) Pearson is a California native who has been a Sci-Fi/Fantasy fan for most of his life. Some of the characters from his “Once Upon A Realm” fantasy novel series were inspired a long time ago from playing Dungeons & Dragons as a teenager and later writing fan-fiction centered around the Lexx universe. Other influences such as the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and films like the Star Wars saga, The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, and The Last Unicorn can be clearly seen in his books. Pearson worked for 16 years as a middle and high school English teacher before leaving the profession in 2022. He currently resides in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he works as an Arts Educator for the Andy Warhol Museum.
