An Evening with author Michael Alan Peck

2015 Winner of the Soon to be Famous Illinois Author Project on his novel and self-publishing

“Paul Reid died in the snow at seventeen. The day of his death, he told a lie—and for the rest of his life, he wondered if that was what killed him.”

So begins Michael Alan Peck’s The Commons: Book 1: The Journeyman.

Winner of the 2015 Soon to be Famous™ Illinois Author Project, Michael is a new kind of author. Bypassing the traditional publishing route by controlling not only the writing and editing process, but also creating and implementing a sophisticated marketing initiative, Peck takes self-publishing to a new level.
