My name is Michael; I am 36, a novelist, former business owner and a senior at Grand Valley State University. I am also a proud father of an amazing year and a half-old little boy named Jax and happily engaged to his mother; an amazingly inspirational woman named Stacey. I am now trying to make my mark in the literary word in some noticeable way as an author and writer.

Now I am trying to make my mark in the literary word in some noticeable way as an author and writer. I published two works so far in my writing career. The first wasRunning Northwest; a romance novel about a single father raising his adopted son alone on the Oregon Coast. The second is a short story called Christmas Senses, which is about a man stricken with blindness and how he experiences Christmas with his family in his own unique way.

This past January I released my second full-length novel titled All the Roads Home which is the first book in my new Oregon Series. I am already hard at work writing the second book in that series titled The Diner, which will come out later in 2016.

I blog and write as often as possible on my other site, Journey’s & Life about subjects important to me such as traveling and vacations, movies, relationships, parenting, books, and writing. Keep a lookout for new things coming in the next few months here on my website or on my other social media.
