With over a million written words and four distinct books spanning genres from action-adventure and crime to sci-fi thrillers, Michael brings a wealth of life experience to the page.  His life’s journey began in South Africa, where he was raised amidst the raw beauty of the African wilderness and gold mining towns.  He crossed continents, from mandatory military service in one of the world’s toughest forces to engineering feats in Canada and the United States.  Each chapter of his life has fuelled his storytelling, infusing narratives with authenticity, tension, and a deep understanding of the human spirit.

Michael’s stories are a reflection of the people he’s met and the lessons he’s learnt along the way.  They are rich with real-life experiences, from the terror of facing a charging bull elephant to the adrenaline of solving high-stakes technical problems under pressure.  Yet, they remain firmly rooted in fiction, designed to captivate and surprise, keeping readers on the edge of their seats.  As Michael embarks on this new chapter, he is eager to partner with a literary agent who shares his passion for storytelling that resonates, entertains, and leaves a lasting impact.
