Antony Millen is a Nova Scotian living and writing in New Zealand.

Originally from Pictou County, Nova Scotia, Canada, he moved to New Zealand with his wife and two children in 1997. He has lived in Taumarunui since then, working at St Patrick's Catholic Primary School and, more recently, as the head of the English department at Taumarunui High School.

During his early years in New Zealand, he wrote sporadically, but with a dream to write novels as a major part of his life-style if not as a career. In 2013, he launched his first novel, 'Redeeming Brother Murrihy'. He followed this in 2014 with 'Te Kauhanga: A Tale of Space(s)'. 'The Chain' is his first novel for young adults.

In recent years, Antony has seen short stories and essays published in several literary journals including 'Landfall', 'Headland', 'The Pantograph Punch', and 'The Spinoff'. He blogs regularly at antonymillen.com
