Michael Waverley was born and raised in Argyll on Scotland’s rugged west coast, where long horizons, Atlantic weather and a strong tradition of storytelling first shaped his imagination. After seventeen formative years there, he went on to live in London for seven years and in East Africa for five before settling in North Yorkshire.
Each place left its mark. Africa was a prism through which he glimpsed how the world really works — its systems, its inequalities, and its deep, everyday humanity. London taught him energy, urgency, and how to participate fully in life. North Yorkshire, beautiful and civilised, offers something rarer: the quiet, space and steadiness needed to think deeply and write.
A self-taught polyglot with a restless curiosity about people and cultures, Michael brings an international outlook to his fiction. His work blends big ideas with human stories, often exploring the meeting points between science, society and the unseen patterns that shape our lives.
When he isn’t writing, he is usually making something. An enthusiastic amateur carpenter and inveterate tinkerer, there are few crafts or hobbies he hasn’t tried at least once — and many he still practises badly but happily.
He lives and writes in North Yorkshire.
