Writing Philosophy
Writing, for Christopher Joseph Stryker Sr., is both a craft and a method of interpretation. His approach emphasizes clarity, accessibility, and narrative structure—especially when working with complex or technical subjects. Rather than separating creativity from instruction, his work blends the two into readable, human-centered material.
Under the alias Zesty, he treats writing as a living system: ideas evolve, language adapts, and meaning is shaped by context. This philosophy informs both his fiction and nonfiction work.
