MA Griffin, aka Fletcher Moss
_Until recently MA Griffin, also known as Fletcher Moss, was an Assistant Headteacher and teacher of English at a school in Greater Manchester, who needed a pseudonym for the writing he fit in between lesson planning, marking and rattling around the M60 in his second-hand Citroen.
Now firmly ensconced in pastures new, he has reverted to his real name and his second novel, LIFERS is published by Chicken House under the name MA Griffin in April 2015. Griffin, also known as the writer formerly known as Moss, lives in Manchester with his wife and daughter.
