Michael Horton

Michael Horton is an Alaskan author of books, novellas, and screenplays on fantasy, science fiction, apocalyptic, historical, nonfiction, and humorous topics.

Michael has worked within Alaska and the Northwest as a behavioral health director, a mental health clinician and substance abuse counselor, and a grants writer who has been serving indigenous peoples throughout many regions of the 49th State for most of thirty-five years. He has helped people heal from all kinds of human experiences primarily within indigenous communities, bush villages, and rural towns.

For those thirty-five years, he counts himself fortunate to remain married to his wife and first editor, Sheila. They have three strong-minded children, Sarah, Samuel, and Tobias, and, in recent years, have welcomed seven rambunctious and curious grandkids into this world.
