K.
Michael Wright grew
up near an Assinaboine Indian reservation in Montana where he
first gained a deep appreciation for Native American culture,
which later led to extensive travel and research into Mesoamerican
myth and history.
After picking
up a BA in History, he earned a Master's of Fine Arts degree in
Creative and Critical Writing from Brigham Young University, during
which time he won the Kennedy Center Award for Excellence for
his play Outrun The Night.
After graduating,
he moved to LA and worked in production companies and as a screenwriter.
He also wrote scripts for the Canadian Broadcast Company in Vancouver.
He eventually "did time" in New York as a consultant
and technical writer for companies like Comedy Central and Bank
of New York. Tolteca is his first novel.
Mr. Wright
lives in an historic 1630 house in New England and also spends
time in Utah. Among his hobbies are building wooden model ships,
online computer gaming, and karate (SKA).
