Do you read nonfiction, hard-cover books? Any recently? Old stuff ever? What were your favorite classes in school? Thanks.
Michael J. Sullivan
I read all kinds of things...and quite a bit of it is nonfiction. In fact, one of my favorite authors is non-fiction (Bill Bryson -- everything that man has written is well worth a read). I also read a lot of non-fiction for research purposes...and I'm a bit of a history buff.
As for formats...I read them all! I have quite an extensive hardcover collection, although there are many books I have only in ebook form...which I like because I can adjust the font, which means I don't have to have my reading glasses on.
My most recent non-fiction is the one I'm reading now - It's called "The Big Year" and it's about a birding competition. There was a pretty good movie made from it, but I doubt many people saw it.
In school I enjoyed history, astronomy, and of course, creative writing. I also took quite a few art courses, and I was good enough in that to get a scholarship to the Center for Creative Arts - which is a pretty prestigious art school in Detroit Michigan. I ended up dropping out...but I still do art to this day. I'm working on an oil painting right now.

Hello Michael, as a participant in your Death of Duluth Kickstarter program, I'm really enjoying the digital copy I recently received, and I was reminded of Royce's dislike for dwarves. Have you considered writing some of his dwarven adventures? Magnus was one of my favorite characters from the Revelations, and the tension between him and Royce added so much, but I'd like to know more. Thanks.
