Martin Francom

Martin Francom is a retired pharmacist and programmer who creates stories that refuse to let go—from the historical shores of the Pacific Northwest to the darkest corners of the human soul.

A member of the Kitsap Literary Arts and Writers Guild (KLAW), Martin's work spans genres but shares a singular focus: exploring what we become when pushed to our limits. His narratives range from Southern Gothic noir (Blood on the Dogwood) to Pacific Northwest historical fiction (Gig Harbor, Port Gamble) to cosmic science fiction (The Last Transmission). Francom's latest work is a Southern Gothic Noir Drama called "Blood On The Dogwood." It's available as a Novel, Stage Play, screenplay, and Radio-Theatre Play.

Martin pioneers innovative storytelling methods and tools to bring his visions to life while maintaining complete creative control. His work has been praised for its historical authenticity, moral complexity, and prose that honors the craft of storytelling.

When he's not crafting narratives, Martin can be found on his backyard farm in Kitsap County tending to his critters—goats, alpacas, chickens, and ducks—or in his hammock enjoying a cold beer or lemonade on a hot summer's day. Just watching the world slow down.
