Michael Nickel is a German writer, educator, and lifelong storyteller. With a background in English and History, he has spent over 30 years capturing thoughts, emotions, and observations in the form of short fiction. His writing blends introspection, wit, and a touch of the unexpected, often drawing from personal experiences, yet never bound by them. When he's not writing, Michael explores his love for music, technology, and the small wonders of everyday life. Splinter Works is his first published collection.
