Hi, I’m Philip Duncan.
My name is Philip Duncan. I was born and raised in East Tennessee, where I still live with my college sweetheart turned wife and two kids.
I played baseball from the time I could walk until I graduated from college. I used to work in the healthcare field but have since retired from the 9-5 grind to pursue my passion of becoming a self-published author.
I now spend my time writing fast-paced thrillers, and I love implementing things from my life into my stories to make them feel more real. When I'm not writing, you can find me working with other authors, spending time with my family, going to the gym, or watching The Office for the 100th time.
You can connect with me at philipsduncan.com or email me directly at philip@philipsduncan.com
