Interview with Mark Mackey



Hello all you readers and writers!
Emma Michaels here to introduce our guest author of the day:
Mark Mackey
Hello Mark and welcome to The Writers Voice!

Who do you feel is your most unique character?
There’s so many, but Gabrielle Milton from Love Letters From Hell, and Gabrielle’s Gift part 1 and 2

If you could have any extraordinary gift or super power what would it be and why?
Flight.

What do you feel is your biggest writerly fault and how do you deal with it?
Putting in too many characters.

What is your biggest pet peeve in fiction writing?
Reading a book written in first person. I’ve tried writing this way several times, and it just doesn’t really work.

Where do you do your best writing? Do you like to have certain surroundings?
Wherever I am, and usually no, just as long as it’s not a place raining or snowing.

Besides writing, what do you like to do in your free time?
Reading, walking, television.

Tell us something about your book that we wouldn’t know just by reading the blurb.
I came up with the idea of Curse Girl in December of 2006 while lying in a hospital bed for a screenwriting class I was about to take.

Which came first for you--the characters, the idea for the setting, or the plot?
The plot

Is there anything you’d like to go back one year and tell yourself?
No.

Thank you for stopping by
The Writers Voice!
