As the son of a submariner in the U.S. Navy, Michael spent much of his childhood moving around, from his birthplace of Hawaii to his current home in Tucson, Arizona.
The animals and environement of the Sonoran Desert were the inspiration for the characters and settings of "Venom Wars of the Desert Realm," and the four heroes are named after his four children, whom he dedicated the book to.
Michael is currently working on book 2 of the series, "Venom Wars of the Island Realm."
He is a graduate of the University of Arizona. Bear Down!
