M a Batten

M.A.Batten is an award-winning writer of fantasy, science fiction, dark fiction, and twisted horror.

During a successful 25-year career in advertising, M.A. amassed over 150 creative awards before deciding to return to his childhood dream oftelling stories, but without brands or their ridiculous reasons to buy stuff you can't afford and don't need.

His stories have since won four First Places in NYC Midnight, two Shortlists for the Hammond House Literary Prize, and a Finalist at Page International Awards, and his screenplays have won awards and official selections at film festivals around the world.

As M.A.Batten writes, a hedgehog called Camden sits on his desk.
