August Hill, a Canadian author, is known for his works of literary fiction and comic fantasy. Growing up near Toronto, he developed a love for reading, devouring books from his father's library in secret. His passion for storytelling led him to write an impressive novel at the age of eight and attend writing conferences as a young prodigy.
Hill's academic journey took him through journalism school, where he focused on writing about his deepest obsessions. He later pursued an MBA, using his entrepreneurial skills to build businesses centered around his passions. Despite his professional success, Hill returned to his true passion for writing fiction that explores the absurd and fragile aspects of the world.
However, Hill's finds solace by the sea, where he spends quality time with his wife, baby son, and a lively bunch of eleven chickens. Accompanied by their adventurous dog, Quest, adapted from the Australian outback, Hill cherishes the simple joys and draws inspiration for his writing from the beauty of nature and the captivating stories of people he encounters.
