Michael Newman has published two acclaimed non-fiction books (John Wiley & Sons) and has been translated into Chinese, Korean, Hungarian, Russian, Turkish, Kazakh, French, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish. He's written for magazines in the UK, France, Turkey, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and Australia. He's worked as a copywriter, scriptwriter, radio writer, essayist, columnist, feature writer, restaurant reviewer, speechwriter, songwriter, creative director and creative consultant. In other words, the businesses of words. (So you'd really expect him to be a much faster typist.) His creative work has won major awards in Europe, UK, US, Asia and Australia. He lives on the east coast, in a forest, near a lake. He has never been comfortable referring to himself in the third person. DON'T DIE WONDERING is his first novel. www.dontdiewondering.info info@dontdiewondering.info Praise for Michael Newman from Amazon readers: Newman engages the reader from the first page . . . a smart and compelling book - Sarah A.
