Book loving, writer, who likes to read several books at a time because she's a bit crazy like that.

Go-to authors are Stephen King, James Herbert, Terry Pratchett, Raymond Feist and Clive Barker, with Asimov, Arthur C Clarke, Robert A Heinlein and lots of others in between.

It's not so much about loving particular genres, as much as finding stories and characters to engage and resonate with - but I will always head for Horror, Thrillers, and Science Fiction, before any others (my guilty pleasure is Self-Help.)

I write dark stuff, sci-fi stuff, surreal stuff, psychological stuff and a mixture of all four.

I also write as M K Boers

I have a newsletter, which you can sign up for here.

“door;”
Miranda Kate, Nocturnal Nibbles

“And my commander always says, when we go about our business in the city, that when you look at the state of mankind you are forced to accept the reality of the gods.'
(Captain Carrot)”
Terry Pratchett, The Last Hero

“He was alone with his thoughts. They were extremely unpleasant thoughts and he would rather have had a chaperon.”
Douglas Adams, Life, the Universe and Everything

“Time was a face on the water, & like the great river before them, it did nothing but flow.' - The Wind Through The Keyhole.”
Stephen King, The Wind Through the Keyhole

“The killer of life is not death but disenchantment' - in Shagbark, Story in Book of Dark Wisdom, The Magazine of Dark Fiction”
A.A. Attanasio

“Inferiority and superiority are reverse sides of the same coin. The cure lies in realizing that the coin itself is spurious. The truth about you is this: You are not “inferior.” You are not “superior.” You are simply “You.”
Maxwell Maltz, Psycho-Cybernetics
