Michael J Holley is the author of three comedy novels; Cast in the Summer of Love, The Great Corporate Escape and The Christmas Number One. His stand-alone stories tend to be funny, plot-driven adventures littered with interesting characters from the real world. They are almost as good for escaping as a hacksaw baked into a Victoria Sponge. After being born in Southampton, he had spells in Liverpool, Manchester and Stockholm before realising that an international career in accountancy was finally threatening to destroy his best years. Thankfully, three years ago he upped and moved his family to the Isle of Wight, and has been a full-time writer ever since. His website, which focuses on indie-publishing, has received over 100,000 views, he has published a guide to self-publishing and is regularly running self-publishing courses across the country. Having been the taller half of the rhythm section for the indie-rock band Aura4, Michael still enjoys listening to proper music and playing in bands. He also loves watching and playing football, swimming, reading (of course) and drinking good coffee.You can follow him on: Twitter (@mjholleywriter) Facebook Page (Michael J Holley) or, visit his website www.michaeljholley.com
