“Few do storytelling like Michael. It might seem simple, but that is the beauty of his work - I'd give my left arm to write this good. ”

“Michael is just my kind of authentic, relatable storyteller who will wrap your attention around his little finger with the kind of writing skill that makes you feel you're talking to friend. He's like that in real life too. Very happy to get to recommend his stories to readers of Honestly Human.”

“Nobody else can make peaches, chocolate croissants, and glasses of water seem like the most precious things in the world—which, of course, they are! It may be ironic that we need literary magic to remind us of the beauty of reality, but there's no one quite like Mike to do the trick that's not a trick at all.”
