Welcome to CERNIG!
Hi, I’m Colin Cerniglia. Aka CERNIG.
I used to work as a corporate human resource leader, but now I’m a full-time stay-at-home dad and writer!
My writing is part of what keeps our family of four financially afloat. If you’re able, I’d really appreciate it if you could become a paid subscriber by clicking the button below. Of course, free subscriptions are also greatly appreciated! As a subscriber, you’ll have complete access to all my columns, comments, archived content, and more. While I don’t have a paywall, your paid support would make a huge difference for me and my family!
I love to be real about the topics I write about. I don’t do much hot-take stuff, and you won’t see a lot of narcissism here, either. I’m more of a positive and fun-loving kind of guy.
What I’m Currently Writing 🎸 📖 🦋
Babe Johnston has spent her life bending to the needs of others—her family, her lovers, her bandmates—all while burying her own voice. But when the lead singer of her rising band abruptly quits, Babe is yanked from behind the drum kit and forced into the spotlight. As she struggles to keep the band from falling apart, her inner demons resurface, and a sinister stalker begins to unravel everything she’s fought for.
Set against the electric pulse of modern-day Los Angeles, PAPILIO is a raw exploration of how music can ignite your soul—and destroy it if you let it. Babe must find the strength to lead, not just her band but herself, as she battles both external threats and the chaos within. Can she hold it all together, or will the music she loves be the thing that finally breaks her?
