Welcome to the Creator of Mikko Kivinen

Hi 

I write under the pen name Michael J Ingram, but everyone calls me Mike. No one calls me 'Michael', except my mother when I'm in trouble.

The ‘J’ is just there to make me sound smarter than I am (spoiler: it doesn’t work). 

I’m just a regular guy—a family man, lucky husband to an incredibly talented (and very patient) wife, and proud dad to beautiful twin daughters who keep life interesting and me young.

But here’s the thing: I believe I have a story to tell.

They say, 'Write the book you want to read' , so that’s exactly what I’ve done.

Feel free to explore my site as I build it, sign up for my newsletter to follow my writing journey, and drop by my Facebook page. Comments and conversations are always welcome—writing can be a lonely pursuit, and I’d love to hear from you!


*I am not to be confused with Mike Ingram, American author, the late Mike Ingram, the actor Michael H. Ingram or Michael Ingram, Michael Ingram, or even Michael Ingram.

They just happen to be supremely talented individuals with a great name.

And no, I'm not related to the Who Wants to be a Millionaire cheat Charles Ingram, either.
