Joy & Balance

Chris S. Bond was born in 2006, on the West Central Coast of the United States of America and grew up on the East Coast of the U.S. due to military affiliation. This has made him well-rounded. Most of his childhood was spent moving from place to place while a U.S. Army dependent.

Coming from humble beginnings, Chris's life, like most teenagers, has had several highs and lows. He has weathered many storms and challenges in life at a young age, a life-changing event of having a parent needing emergency open heart surgery, while at the same time his other parent was deployed on military active duty. The amazing part of Chris's life thus far is he's just a kid, however, carries himself a few years older.

His love for writing is truly a gift that's still in development today, his inspiration for writing is expressing true emotion to the reader. Chris's life is the epitome of "it takes a village", as he has been blessed to have grandparents, uncles, aunts, and others who stepped in on Chris's behalf when necessary. Chris personally knows and lives diversity and equality every day coming from a myriad of racial backgrounds which are white, black, Hispanic, Indian, and European. Chris's roots run deep and he's beginning to know and understand them today as he begins his writing journey.
