Michael Faudet has done many interesting things. Most notable was enjoying an eighteen-year career, working for arguably one of the most creative advertising networks in the world. During his time at DDB, he has held the positions of Director on the Australian management board, Managing Partner in New Zealand and Executive Creative Director in the Auckland, Sydney and Melbourne offices. He has tutored extensively, guest lectured at universities, sat on many industry judging panels and has spoken at creative conferences around the world. Michael has also won numerous international awards in some of the most prestigious advertising shows. In 2013, he decided to walk away from advertising to focus on his own creativity and writing. Michael's poetry and prose explores the many different facets of love and relationships. His whimsical and sometimes erotic writing quickly went viral and continues to attract a growing cult following of readers from around the world. When he is not writing, you'll find Michael living in NZ, sharing a bottle of wine with his poet girlfriend, Lang Leav, in their little house by the sea.
