Welcome
Hi, my name is Michael Tinsley and it's so nice to meet you. My journey of becoming an author has been filled with twists, turns, back-flips, summersaults and the entire spectrum of emotions. I'm so glad to share my story with you and I hope you become a life long fan. Writing is my passion, and I'm excited for what's to come. When I first started writing, my goal was to create something fun and adventurous. But thinking back to childhood memories, I realized I also needed to write a story of inspiration and empowerment. I have what is known as vitiligo, a condition that affects the melanin or pigmentation within the skin. During the creative process of writing, I knew it was important for the main character to have vitiligo as a way to help anyone who may have it themselves. So, I decided to take these elements and incorporate them into a fantasy world where people have uncanny abilities and remarkable powers.
​
This is my story and I'm ecstatic to share it with you.
The Story of May A Divine Awaken
May A Divine Awaken is a YA Fantasy Book Series set in the lost world of Pyris. The story begins Marcus Azure, a young soldier who lives in constant ridicule for bestowing strange blemishes across his skin. Abandoned by his parents and shunned by his village, Marcus seeks refuge by enlisting in the military at the age of sixteen.
​
But Marcus' reckless decision quickly turns chaotic when a mysterious group of assassins attack his village. Desperate to prove himself, Marcus embarks on a quest of revenge and encounters Sinclair Bonet, a rogue queen who reveals that Marcus’s skin blemishes are a sign of great potential. She offers to train Marcus, but in return he must join her in the great war against the Divines—powerful humans with abilities to manipulate metals, harness the wind, and turn flesh to ash.
But when Marcus uncovers the truth about the attack on his village, he questions everything and must decide whether to fight against the Divines or betray the very people he loves most.
IN THE END, THE FINAL DECISION MAY NOT REST IN HIS HANDS…
