Former Political operative lifts the curtain as political thriller authorMichael’s Story Award-winning political fiction author Michael Fedor brings a dynamic blend of suspense, thrillers, and political intrigue to readers with his captivating storytelling.

With over 20 years of political organizing and narrative expertise, Michael transforms his real-world experience from the wild, wooly worlds of Washington, D.C., and state capitals into gripping tales of power, ambition, and the human condition. His fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat writing style pairs seamlessly with meticulous research, creating thrillers that are not only exciting but also terrifyingly plausible.

Having transitioned from the classroom as a teacher 18 years ago to grassroots organizing, Michael has worked on campaigns at every level—from local to presidential—gaining firsthand insight into the personal costs of pursuing power. A former candidate and elected official himself, Michael retired from political life in 2020.

After years in the political trenches, Michael took the leap to pursue a long-held passion: writing. Dusting off a manuscript penned in 2004, he overhauled it, leading to the release of his award-winning debut novel, What It Takes to Kill a Bull Moose in June 2024. This political thriller, the first in his “Bull Moose” series, has already garnered multiple awards and critical acclaim for its intense plot, accurate detail, and rich character development.

Michael earned both master’s and bachelor’s degrees from Penn State University. As a father and husband, he thoroughly enjoys forging new memories by planning adventures from the Fedor Family Bucket List.

Like the main character of Bull Moose, Michael is an avid outdoorsman, tenderhearted, a voracious reader, and a student of history. Michael remains undefeated at pub trivia.

From Hollis... Growing up a Navy brat gave me an extreme case of wanderlust and paved the way to becoming certifiably obsessed with ancient cultures, travel, and writing. Living abroad as a child helped to foster a sense of fun and wonderment at the world around me. Suffice to say that I loved my childhood so much so, that perhaps I never really grew up in my own head. Basically, you should never stop playing in life. The colors are much brighter that way!

My Father retired from the Navy when I was eleven, and I met Ashley, my very best friend and more of a sister, actually. One of the many activities we bonded over in our mutual creative nerdiness was playing Dungeons & Dragons. Over twenty five years later, we are still super geeks creating wonderful worlds and characters in between our adult lives. One of our adventures was the inspiration for my first novel, To Save a World, for which I am presently writing a sequel.

I'd love to hear from you.

From Savannah... My debut novel was released from Harpeth Road Press on May 7, 2024: The Library of Second Chances. I’m also currently editing my second novel, The Summer of Starting Over, and writing what I hope will be my third. They’re all small town romances set in fun, beachy locales. So, if you’re ready for a mental vacation, you’ve come to the right place!⁠
⁠
Now to let you in on my little secret…my legal name is Kristi Dosh. I decided to go with a pen name when I started writing romance. People have lots of reasons for choosing to use a pen name, but as you can tell mine wasn’t anonymity. ⁠
⁠
If you happen to know me already as Kristi, then you know I’ve spent more than a decade now as a sports business reporter for outlets such as ESPN and Forbes and have published a book on the business of college football under that name. ⁠It’s also the name I used in my former life as an attorney.
⁠
Having spent more than a decade building up my platform as a sports business expert, my website and social channels under my real name are all full of dedicated sports fans…who I love. But, they’re not exactly the same demographic that might want to read romance novels.
⁠
So, I get to reinvent myself and be someone brand new, which I think will be a lot of fun. If you decide to follow me on this journey, I’m glad to have you along!
