Michael Embry

I'm the author of  Laments,  a short-story collection about the consequences of people's actions toward others. I've also written three mainstream novels, Foolish Is The Heart, A Long Highway, and The Touch; a murder mystery, A Confidential Man; and Shooting Star, a young-adult novel,  all available from Wings ePress.  

"...10 riveting stories, each likely to bring sadness to all but the coldest hearts." reviewer Steve Flairty, Kentucky Monthly

Laments is available in a digital version from Amazon.com, BN.com, and Smashwords.com for 99 cents. 

I've also written three non-fiction sports books, Basketball in the Bluegrass State: The Championship Teams, March Madness: The History of the Kentucky High School Basketball Tournament, and Baron of the Blue Grass: The Wit and Wisdom of Legendary Kentucky Basketball Coach Adolph Rupp.

I'm available to participate with reading groups for Shooting Star, A Confidential Man, Foolish Is The Heart, The Touch, A Long Highway and Laments. Contact Wings ePress to receive discounted books on bulk orders. For groups interested in having me as a speaker, contact me at michael.embry@gmail.com to set a date and time.

A Confidential Man, Foolish Is The Heart, A Long Highway, The Touch, Shooting Star and Laments are also available from Amazon.com in print and Kindle editions, on NOOK from Barnes & Noble,  and other websites such as Smashwords. You can also ask your favorite bookstore or local library to order the books from Wings ePress. If you'd like a personalized copy of my books, please contact me by e-mail for information. If you've purchased any of my novels on Kindle, I can digitally sign them for you. Simply go to Kindlegraph.com and request a signed copy.

I'd like to invite Kentucky authors with books that could be used in the classroom to participate in the website www.kyauthorsforeducators.weebly.com. It's free and will get your name and your books in front of teachers across the state. Feel free to e-mail me for more information. The website is also an excellent resource for teachers and librarians.

Read interviews with me on the Tugboat Design blog and romance writer Taryn Raye's blog.

Thanks for dropping by, and have a great day!
