I believe it was Stephen King who said that anyone with pain can write a book; but someone with a good memory can become a serial author. Years ago, sitting alone in miring in my own self-pity; I finally decided I had enough. I sat down, opened up my word processor, and started writing. Two years later, I finally looked up, and realized I had written nearly 6 full books charged with emotionally laden content. After receiving some incredible feedback from a professional editor; it gave me hope that my first novel actually had something. She kept repeating that: "there is just something about your writing". For someone with a novice interest in writing, this sparked a belief in me that perhaps my novels were worth pursuing publishing.

Hello, my name is Michael. If you are reading this, I am grateful to meet you here in this format. What would be even more meaningful is if we someday collaborated on this project together. I have come to find that people, connection, and passion for purpose are intimately woven into my values, personhood, and projects. Right now, I am working on a series called: "Charlie's Adventures"; a coming of age story about a young dog who experiences trauma from birth to adulthood.

Who knows, someday these books could sit alongside my favorites like: "Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, and Lord of the Rings". Perhaps that is a high ceiling to set. I don't or won't presume anything; nor do I need that level of validation to know that my work has meaning and purpose. Yet, my inner child smiles at the thought of traveling around the world to do book signings and events. Regardless, I am grateful, so overwhelmingly inspired by fellow authors who pour their hearts and souls into their work as I have.

God Bless, Michael
