About the Author
After returning to the U.S. and receiving his Honorable Discharge, he married and fathered two daughters. He continued his formal education in Industrial Engineering Technology, while also immersing himself in his true passion, Literature and World History. After his divorce in 2011, he made the decision to write his first novel and embarked on two years of historical and cultural research for its foundation. In 2014, after a decade of traditional employment, it became apparent that the time and stress of his occupation were hindering his creative progress, so he made another life-changing decision and resigned his financially lucrative position in the Engineering Department of a Fortune 50 corporation. He purchased a boat and moved aboard as a recluse, to give himself wholly to his work and fulfill his vision.
The first of his novels to come, AN UNCOMMON FOLK RHAPSODY, is an example of C.J. Heigelmann’s pursuit of perfecting the “Art of Storytelling” on paper, by using strong visuals, emotions, and narrations to substitute for the absence of a human “Storyteller.” He is currently an aspiring Novelist, Vlogger, Media Content Creator and is employed on the managerial staff with a major university in South Carolina. His creative passion and impetus derive from his belief that, "Amor Vincit Omnia." That is, “Love conquers all.”
