Tony Norse is as comfortable spending time with interesting people in a city as he is being alone with a backpack and tent beside a river. In his youth, Tony lived in the beautiful backwoods of Quebec, Canada writing short fiction and tending a large garden. 

​

A passion for writing satire gradually morphed into genres commonly known as "thriller." 

​

"I have been fortunate to enjoy many different lifestyles - from working with environmental organizations to being on the boards of business associations in big cities to playing guitar & staring at the stars while living in the country." 

​

For the past many years, Tony Norse has helped to moderate an international online support group for cult victims. He strongly supports the rights of individuals to think critically and live happily in freedom.

​

"Albert Einstein once wrote: 'The important thing is to not stop questioning.' I agree."

​

When not writing, hiking, reading, & staying curious, Tony always finds time for sports. These days that means plenty of pickleball! He lives with his loving partner of 37 years. They have 2 adult children.
