About the Author

Mike McNulty is a counseling therapist and writer who was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, but raised in Georgia, with side trips to Texas and New Jersey as a child. He lost his southern accent along the way, but never his appreciation for the heavenly delights and maddening contradictions of the South.
A journalism degree at the University of Georgia somehow led to a divinity degree at Emory University and a brief dalliance with the United Methodist Church. Wanting to be involved in the daily challenges of people, he pursued a career in mental health counseling. This is his first novel.
