Michael Pickard

Michael Pickard’s writing serves as the bridge between his professional work in technology and his passion for the creative arts.

Dozens of Pickard's short stories have been published, including Hardwired, which won a Ray Bradbury Creative Writing Prize in 2005.

Pickard’s extensive background working with cutting edge technology has proved helpful for imagining fictive universes and societies. Strong satire keeps readers grounded, thinking and laughing.
