Michael Shew

Michael Shew began writing fiction after retiring as the head teacher at a London comprehensive school, following a forty year career in education. 'Backlash', whilst standing alone, is the sequel to ‘Lessons in Lying’, (2019, Austin Macauley Publishers), published after he took a creative writing course at the University of Oxford. 

He still works part time at Sheffield Hallam University, is interested in modern history and politics, and enjoys hill walking and travelling. He’s married to Francesca and they share their time between London and Derbyshire.
