Mike M Farnworth

I grew up in Grace, Idaho, a small town of 978 people in the Southeast Corner of Idaho. I graduated from Grace High School in 1997 and immediately left for the United States Marine Corps as a CH-53 Helicopter Mechanic. After the Marines, i became a professional Journalist while working for the United States Postal Service. In my time with the Idaho State Journal in Pocatello Idaho, I wrote more than 670 articles under my byline Michaelfarnworth@Idahostatejournal.net and was awarded Rookie of the Year for the entire state of Idaho, along with several other Associated Press Awards for my work. In 2008 my first children’s book “The Sinister Mr. Pickle and the Fickle he got the McWickles into” was published by America Star Books, and I have been writing ever since.
