My Story

After serving over 30 years as a soldier in the Australian Army, 

I  turned my hand to writing and love the challenge  of converting my many story ideas into exciting stories, I hope my readers will enjoy. Over many years I served with soldiers who had seen active service in many different conflicts. I picked up great stories, told to me over a beer or two, and I try to include many of these  true life stories into my fiction writing. By doing this I hope it gives my readers a chance to experience the life and death situations many of my mates have been in.

REVIEWS

Mike has captured the essence of the Vietnam conflict in For an Angel's Breath.

Having served in 1969, in-country, it is easy to relate to the situations and emotions described in this story of endless twists and unexpected catastrophes.

 

It's a bloody good read.
