Autorenporträt

John Thomson has loved submarines since he was a little boy. He grew up listening to the stories of a World War II submariner veteran and playing a submarine simulator game on his Nintendo. He read every submarine book and watched every submarine movie he could get his hands on. As an adult, Thomson joined the Canadian Armed Forces and eventually volunteered for service on submarines, which is where he became a qualified submariner. While sailing on the submarines HMCS Victoria, HMCS Windsor, and HMSC Chicoutimi, he passed the time writing poems and short stories. Captain Boy was written while onboard HMCS Chicoutimi. Thomson currently lives in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, with his wife, Kelly, and their two children Owen and Audrey.
