Mike Diaz is the author of ESP Pawn Chronicles, a collection of interconnected supernatural stories built around one simple idea: every item has a story, and some refuse to stay buried. Inspired by his own experiences working in the pawn business, Mike created ESP Pawn, a small Georgia pawnshop where Jim Hanby has an unusual gift. When Jim touches certain objects, he can see pieces of their past and the people whose lives became connected to them. The stories blend the paranormal with mystery, history, crime, suspense, and the occasional dark twist. A forgotten photograph, an old necklace, a camera, a clock, or something gathering dust in an attic could be carrying a story no one ever knew. Mike is a former U.S. Navy sailor and lives in Georgia. Every item has a story. Some stories refuse to stay buried .
