Christopher Keast

Part engineer, part musician, part poet: a focused writer, Christopher spends his early waking hours writing stories that weave science and technology into satire and dystopia, promising readers a fun ride to somewhere or other. His characters struggle in worlds where virtual reality, biotechnology, and ecological strain collide with comedy, romance, science and the supernatural, with glimpses into realms barely pondered. Dare to imagine, laugh and cry!

Christopher lives in Port Dover, Canada with his wife and daughter, with space to conjure extravagant ideas and dream-up engaging characters, and a family that shims open his doors of creativity while keeping him young at heart. This wannabe musician, philosopher, and yogi would otherwise get lost in nomadism or drinking way too much coffee; jitters that would make him much less productive. Christopher's self-published debut and the first book in the IREM Trilogy, DATAPOCALYPSE, was originally released in 2020 with a major edit and re-release in 2026. Book II, DIGEPOCH, will be released in the summer of 2026 with Book III slated for early 2027.

Two of his short stories, EYES OF EGO and VIRALPOCALYPSE can be found in published online journals. In 2022, he won the Norfolk Literary Contest for his short story SPARKS OF SELMA. Look out for other future works his latest novel, unrelated to the IREM Series, BELEAF, along with his novella, THE FULCRUM.
