Óscar Montoya was born in Alicante, has a law degree and currently lives in Vigo, where he works for an export and import company. He began his literary journey writing micro-stories on current affairs and daily concerns which he would publish regularly under the pseudonym Montoya Jackson. Having written his first book, 'Últimos días de maternidad' ('Last Days of Motherhood') and self-published it online (Amazon, 2017) with notable success, in 2019 AdN gave their backing to 'De otro Lugar' ('From A Different Place'). The latter is his second novel and the first to be published as a hardcopy and has earned glowing reviews from specialist critics.
