I am a writer and a bookworm. I studied Performing Arts at the BRIT School. It turned out I wasn’t very good at acting but quite liked writing scripts. I went on to take a BA (Hons) in English Literature and Drama. I later won a full scholarship for an MA in Journalism.

Quotes by Niki Mackay (?)

“The choices people make, or don’t know they’re having made for them. What it is that makes us tick, so to speak. Nine times out of ten the perpetrators are normal, born just like the rest of us. Along the way something gets lost, broken, their actions veer from the right track. They become unhealthy. Damaged, and dangerous.”
― Niki Mackay, I, Witness

“I don’t believe in evil people as such. I don’t think it’s born, which means it must be created. Something that makes the hand and the mind warp. The outcome being scenes like that.”
― Niki Mackay, I, Witness

“How quickly they embed into our lives, seeping into the fabric of everything we do. We are so together, so continuously joined that I am no longer sure where I end and she begins.”
― Niki Mackay, The Due Date
