Michael Hicks Thompson

NOTE: The Parchman Preacher has been replaced by The Rector, a full-length suspenseful murder mystery, with an allegory of Christ's ministry. Publisher's Weekly says The Rector is "an engaging, high-energy Christian novel."

Michael has taken two of Media Bistro's Master Novel Writing courses. Caitlin Alexander, former editor with Random for nine years, was the instructor for The Rector.

Now, The Actress is out, second in the Solo series. And a movie is being made of The Rector! Michael will be writing a monthly behind the scenes newsletter about the making of a movie. Learning more is easy. It's easy to sign up on his web site.

Here he is with his wife of 46 years, Tempe Adams Thompson.

Michael received his masters degree in mass communication from the University of South Carolina, after an undergrad from Ole Miss. He started a one-man ad agency that grew into 87 employees in two cities, where he was CEO/creative director/copywriter. His firm, Thompson & Company won numerous national and international creative awards. He sold the firm in 2011, and now devotes his time to writing the Solo series. The Rector has already won several major awards.

He's been a team member in Kairos' prison ministry for two years; also been to Cuba on door-to-door evangelism trips, and spoken at large conventions as featured speaker on the life of David ben Jesse.
