= M.A. Csortos = M.A. Csortos (Mike Csortos) is an American author from Northwest Ohio. Csortos' work includes The Water Tower, Walking Trees and Other Short Stories, as well as The Well. Csortos is an avid guitar player with a keen ear for classic rock and roll. During his lifetime he was a teacher at North Baltimore High School, and retired during the 2018/19 school year. He has a wife, whom he pleasantly gives a shout out to at the beginning of every piece of literature. She is apparently "highly critical of his work", or some may believe that he is talking about one of his two cats when saying one is critical. Mike's son Kyle Csortos is the illustrator for his father's books, and also has a few childrens books of his own. When not working on his next novel, he can be found in the Toledo area jamming out at local venues with his trusty stratocaster.
