Biography:

Chris Nihmey was born in Ottawa. As an interesting fact, he had the same house for 26 years! He went to school at Holy Family Elementary School and afterwards, St. Patrick's High School and graduated at the University of Western Ontario. He was a supply teacher at the OCCSB (Ottawa Carleton Catholic School Board).

Chris is not the only one who wrote the series A Quarter Past Three. A man named Craig Carson helped him! They own a publishing company called Turtles Publishing because they didn't want to sell their book to any of those big publishing companies. The two authors started writing Medieval Madness in 1999.
