John C. A. Manley on The Hrvoje Morić Show - 30 June 2022

GUEST OVERVIEW: John C. A. Manley has been writing speculative fiction since he was nine years old. In 2001, he married, moved out of Toronto into a small town, and began work as a freelance ghostwriter and copywriter; while penning short stories and collecting rejection slips from publishers. In 2018, he began writing his first full-length novel, an urban fantasy set in Stratford, Ontario; but when the first lockdown began in 2020, he put down that project to pen a short dystopian story about where he saw these so-called “public health” measures going. That short story grew into the full-length novel, Much Ado About Corona. John is currently working on the sequel, Brave New Normal, while living in Stratford Ontario, with his wife Nicole, and son Jonah.
