PUBLISHED WORKS
From struggling with dyslexia as a child to becoming an esteemed published author, D. Michael Tomkins broke barriers and inspired nations. In addition to his published works below, Michael had multiple unfinished manuscripts as his passion was writing novels on a lawn chair in the sun. His books now serve as fossils and snippets of his creative mind.

PROJECTS
Lowdown on the Law
2002-2003
Run out of his law office, Michael hosted a radio show where listeners called in for law advice. It was a weekly program which has guest appearances from local legislatures, specialized attorneys, and national audience members.
Papa Pepe's
Early-Mid '90s
Sold as "spice crystals in a packet," Michael's business endeavors included selling packets of spices that could be made into salsa.
He and Margie would do demos in supermarkets and while she could get ~4-5 sales/hour, Michael would get zero. Putting his bitterness and person offense aside, he would toss packets into customers' grocery carts while they weren't looking.
The Last Bath
1973
Utilizing his skills as a writer, Michael and his friends got together and produced an X-rated film; in the 90s, there was a showing at the Scarecrow theater where they highlight Pacific Northwest films of that nature.
It should be noted and clarified he was not in the movie, but wrote for it.
