T M BrownT. M. Brown is a Southern boy at heart, although he's lived and traveled in many states far removed from his beloved boyhood roots in Georgia and Florida. When he returned several years ago he enjoyed traveling throughout the South for business and peasure. He and his wife retired and relocated outside of Atlanta. T. M. Brown, Mike to friends and family, embraces his Georgia heritage, thanks to the paternal branches of his family tree. After his father passed several years ago, he learned of the hard times and sacrifice the Brown family endured during the Depression, which precipitated their grandfather leaving Georgia to find work in Miami. As a child, Mike holds fond memories of warm Sunday afternoons when his Pop drove the family past Stone Mountain in the late 1950s to visit his Great-Uncle's farm. Though Snellville's dust-filled red clay backroads have been widened and paved for decades, Mike fondly recalls the sting of barb-wire pasture fences, sipping cool well-water from a ladle, and getting scrubbed in a washtub as a youngster by the front stoop of Uncle Kerry's and Aunt Monk's old farmhouse.When not writing or traveling, Mike and Connie enjoy sharing time with family. Writing about Shiloh has conjured up many near-forgotten memories, and thanks to his Pop and Poppa, he cherishes this truth - "The testament of a man lies not in the magnitude of possessions and property left to his heirs, but the reach of his legacy long after his death."
