William Mann writes literary fiction grounded in place and history. His work ranges from autofiction to historical novels of the American West, with a particular interest in landscapes shaped by hard weather and harder choices. He lives full-time on the road in an RV with his wife, Chris, and their two dogs, Bronn and Sadie, traveling the country in pursuit of the terrain his books inhabit - the high plains of Montana, the Black Hills, the rolling creek country of southeast Kansas.
He writes in the early mornings, before the day gets in the way. The Long Reckoning, his ongoing historical series, examines the American frontier through the lives of those who lived its endings.
