Alan James "A. J." Healy is an Irish author of children's books. He has written two books, Tommy Storm and its sequel, Tommy Storm and the Galactic Knights. After a colourful childhood, and many jobs around the world, he settled back in Dublin, where he was born, to start writing books. In 2002, he finished Tommy Storm, but was unable to find a publisher due to his being generally unknown. Four years later, he self-published the book, making 5,000 copies. A few months later, when approximately 4,000 books were sold, Quercus bought the rights to publish it.
Work on Tommy Storm 3 has been indefinitely delayed since Healy decided to stop talking about climate change & do something about it instead… He’s currently steeped in entrepreneurial ventures that seek to combat climate change.
