About the author
Michael Jian was born in Los Angeles to a military family. He spent his boyhood and youth in California suffering the moves of military families to other states in various stages of growing up. His father, however, was from Georgia (Thomasville), so by the time college approached, he settled in as a Southerner. He majored in Modern Languages at The Citadel, he Military College of South Carolina which, after military service, led to graduate school and a career in international business. Somewhere along the way the itch to write could no longer be ignored and the flame was ignited. A pilot light if you wish. It would be decades before the stories of his youth kept coming to the forefront of his mind and ghosts of heroes met needed a stage. Ever a surfer at heart, loving the chill temperature of the Pacific Ocean whether on a board or off, or with a line in the water for bar perch, Michael Jian is a SoCal man, whose first choice for residency is San Clemente.
