ABOUT MIKE
I’m a dad, a husband, an author, a pilot, and a person who wants to make the world a better place. I try to do my part by writing books that make a difference. Books that make you think. Books that have an important message hidden in the story. Or books with good-old-fashioned learning built in. Anything that will stimulate developing minds to enjoy reading and learning.
I’m fortunate to have three terrific children and a wildly wonderful, eclectic, purple-and-silver haired wife. I make my home in Florida where I enjoy every bit of the heat and humidity…most of the time.
