C.J. Dotson

C.J. Dotson is a Northeast Ohio native who long contemplated living somewhere other than the rust belt and has finally managed it—C.J. and her family have recently moved from southern Maine to upstate New York. She studied English with a creative writing focus at Cleveland State University and now daydreams about having the time and resources to go back to school to study history and mythology instead. She lives in a house that has more shadows than working lights, along with her husband, her young son and daughter, her grandmother-in-law, and with her teenage stepson over the school breaks. She loves reading sci fi, fantasy, and horror, but will read really anything that catches her eye. In what spare time she has, C.J. likes to paint and draw (mostly with acrylics and charcoal respectively) and she’s teaching herself to decorate cakes. C.J. is primarily a writer of novels and short stories, and occasionally flash fiction. She loves to write dark genre fiction, and is an active member of the Horror Writers Association C.J. is represented by Chris Bucci at Aevitas Creative Management.
