C.J. Piperata currently resides in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. She began her journey as an illustrator, designer and musician in Brooklyn, NY, and attended the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan. As an illustrator, she discovered and fell in love with the world of epic fantasy, and as a songwriter, she had a gift for crafting tales to music in under four minutes. She made the leap to written word in 2019. When she's not writing, you can find her channeling inspiration by working on visual art, or behind an instrument writing and performing music.
