John Misak

Mysteries always interested me, but I never thought I could write them. I tried several different genres (all with terrible results) hoping to find something that worked for me. Then, on a whim, I took a chance and wrote a murder mystery. Soft Case represents that first attempt, and it was published, much to my surprise. It's been a great ride since then, and I hope to keep writing.

My desire is to entertain. There are great mysteries out there by fantastic writers, but I found that sometimes, the genre can feel dreary. I think that a little humor and some slice-of-life situations can really help keep readers involved, so I incorporate them when I can. Sometimes I use personal experience, but most of it comes out of my head. That scares people close to me. They may have a reason.

Though I write other series and under different names, the John Keegan character remains my favorite. We've grown together and I enjoy writing from his perspective. I hope to keep his stories coming.

I write for the love of it and hope that comes through in the work. I always welcome reader feedback, and you can find my contact info at the back of my books, or by visiting johnmisak.com. Feel free to drop me a line.
