About Me

Hey, check it out, I wrote a book...
Fifteen-Year-Old Roy Thomson-Hall wants to be a guitarist but, thanks to a dead fly, accidentally signs up for martial arts lessons.
He and his band soon find themself defending his master's dojo against Jack Von Prickington, owner of the evil dojo across town, singer for a tribute band, and general, all-around douchebag.
Can Roy win the battle of the bands, save the dojo, impress the girl, and convince his mom he's not gay, all without getting a detention? There's only one way to find out.
GUITARS! KUNG FU! PUPPIES! FLYING ROBOTS! LESBIAN PIRATES! KICKS IN THE JUNK! PRANCING!
All this and more can found inside...
SHAOLIN ROCK STAR!
Now, I know what you're asking me. You're asking me, "But Mike! Why didn't the Empire just blow up Yavin instead of waiting for the moon to complete it's orbit?" And you know what? I can't answer that.
But I CAN tell you where to buy a copy of this fantastic book! Come to a reading, or message me here.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Mike Bryant is a ruggedly handsome space pilot and smuggler who's specialty is avoiding Imperial entanglements.
His ship, which he won in a high-stakes card game, once made the Kessell Run in less than twelve parsecs. She's fast enough for you, old man.
Mike was a key player in the Galactic Rebellion, after which he and the Princess totally did it.
