Mike Meier grew up in a blue-collar housing project in Germany. On his own since his teens, he has lived in several different countries, including Argentina and Japan, and worked jobs such as washing dishes, repairing bicycles, and painting homes. When he’s not writing books or screenplays, you’ll find him playing Latin and Flamenco guitar in the Washington, DC area. P.S.: In case you are wondering about the author's photograph--Mike's grandfather was the 1930s travelling magician and fortune teller Wladi-Kami.
JoinWith.Me is a dystopian thriller that takes place in the near future, the year 2032, with a strong message about how the Internet and technology have the ability to control us. The script explores the human vs. machine conflict. The underlying premise is that eventually all of humanity will converge in technology.
