edit data

Mark Engelsson is a transatlantic nomad masquerading as a writer. He mostly focuses on poetry, with occasional forays into short stories and a couple of ideas for novels on the backburner. What If What’s Inside Me Isn’t Me? is his début book, exploring the duality in life while being unafraid to shine a light on the darker side of humanity.

“Where were you when you gave
up?
When your dreams crawled out of

And died, shivering, starved of

Mark’s Quotes

“You can't build a house without nails and wood. If you don't want a house built, hide the nails and wood. If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides of a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none.”
― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451
