WILLIAM KELY MCCLUNG is a novelist, screenwriter, and filmmaker whose work is defined by its visceral pacing, atmospheric depth, and raw physical reality.
Named as one of the “Top 100 Indie Filmmakers in the World,” McClung has written more than thirty feature screenplays and directed three award-winning feature films, cutting and mixing film projects in legendary spaces from London to Berlin.
McClung has spent decades learning and teaching martial arts across the United States, Southeast Asia, and Europe—a lifetime of elite combat discipline that directly infuses his prose with authentic, high-velocity stakes and action.
He was twice inducted into the Martial Arts Hall of Honours for his contributions to martial art and action cinema.
As in his three previous thrillers, Loop, Super Ninja, and Black Fire, McClung strives to strip away traditional artifice to create an immersive, non-linear experience where the presentation of words on the page becomes an active character.
Besides writing, McClung travels and trains and teaches martial arts, studies graphic design, writing, and photography.
