For as long as he can remember, Michael Rupured has loved to write. Before he learned the alphabet, he filled page after page with rows of tiny little circles he now believes were his first novels and has been writing ever since.

After false starts and a few stumbles into blind alleys, eventually I find my way to the end.(less)
