M.K. South

M.K. South has worked in international finance and development for over 20 years, living in or traveling to many countries including the ones featured in their debut novel, Of Our Own Device. Currently, M.K. works in Eastern Europe and continues globetrotting, for work and to experience the world.

"I was born a vagabond," says M.K., "in a snow-clad little place thousands of miles away from the sun-drenched city on the Black Sea my mother called home. I then lived, studied and worked in other countries, poor, aspiring and rich. I've experienced poverty and war, as well as prosperity and peace, and I've learned that you don't fully appreciate the latter, unless you've intimately known the former."
