This is not a story about becoming a chef.

This is a story about surviving the journey.

From a teenage dishwasher in New York City to navigating the chaos of professional kitchens, Here Until I'm Not pulls back the curtain on what life in the culinary industry really looks like behind closed doors.

Over more than three decades, C.B. Peters worked through fine dining restaurants, hotels, corporate dining accounts, cross-country moves, complicated relationships, burnout, loss, music, and the emotional realities of building a life inside an industry that rarely slows down.

Told with honesty, humor, reflection, and unfiltered detail, this memoir captures the pressure, personalities, absurdity, and humanity found both inside and outside the kitchen.

Some stories are uncomfortable. Some are unexpected.

All of them are real.

Peters, C. B.: - C.B. Peters writes under a pen name, choosing to keep the focus on the work rather than the author. Born and raised in New York City and now living in Southern California, Peters draws on more than three decades of experience in professional kitchens and everyday life.His debut memoir, "Here Until I'm Not", is told with honesty, humor, and reflection. It explores relationships, successes, failures, and the seemingly ordinary moments that quietly shape who we become.Rather than offering lessons or easy answers, Peters simply shares the journey as it happened. The memoir invites readers to laugh, cringe, reflect, and perhaps recognize pieces of their own lives along the way.
