Phil M. Williams lives in central Pennsylvania and writes from a position of deliberate independence — he self-publishes and maintains a permaculture farm alongside his writing career. His thrillers tend to feature ordinary protagonists: teachers, workers, parents pulled into situations where the systems they trusted have failed them.

His 2050 series imagines a United States roughly three decades forward, where the gap between wealthy and poor has become a tool of political control, and dissent lands people in facilities from which they don’t return. His standalone titles cover darker domestic territory — No Good Deed, Death Do Us Part — alongside more satirical work like The Cart Pusher. Across more than two dozen books, Williams has developed a consistent voice: skeptical of authority, focused on individual conscience, and grounded in recognizable social tensions.
