At the age of thirteen, whilst attending high school, Christian enrolled into a local drama group called S.K.I.D.S. Christian performed in many theatre productions like 'Out of Sight' and 'Twisted Tales.' During the years he attended drama school, he was excited about the possibility of working within the entertainment industry as an actor.
After four years with S.K.I.D.S, Christian acquired the services of 'Jills Casting Agency' and worked on numerous television series and commercials which include, Halifax fp, Neighbours, A Country Practise, Blue Heelers, Janus, Law of the Land and The Damnation of Harvey McHugh.
Christian ceased working in the entertainment field for a few years after marrying high school sweetheart, Jennifer Macfarlane. With an invitation to help write and produce local drama productions for 'The EDGE', Christian was glad to let out his creative frustrations by working on over thirty shows and skits like, The Beauty of Christmas, Happy Days, The Brady Bunch and many more.
"I used to love performing more than anything else, but as time went on, I began to enjoy the writing side of it more. When you write, you have a voice and it's quite thrilling to think that in some way, you may have an impact on someone elses life by using that voice in a positive way. I always loved writing at school and found it very easy. I tried to write a novel in my early teens, but never finished it. I tried again in my late teens and again as an adult. It was time to finish what I'd started. Maybe not those exact novels, but certainly my desire to write had to be fulfilled," says Christian.
Christian wrote his first picture book, Cryslow's Super Heroes, which was published in 2005. Christian's first novella 'Harvesting Hope', has just been launched and is available for sale.
Christian is currently studying Novel Writing and Publishing and is working on a new novel and hopes to have that completed by the end of 2008.
