ABOUT
Conjuring Tales
Kris has been telling stories ever since he started hearing them; everything from explaining to the teacher how the dog ate his homework, to scaring the daylights out of children with wicked tales of monsters in the woods. Raised on comics (X-Men and Spider-Man) as well as prose fiction (Lord of the Rings and Dune) Kris has taken years of reading and studying stories and mixed it with memories of love and fear, and now walks the path set out by the greats before him to stimulate the world with his own storytelling.
On top of creating his own IPs, Kris is a freelance writer & editor and is currently eager for any
opportunity to broaden his expertise into working in video games as a narrative designer.
