Mark R. Healy is an author and musician from Brisbane, Australia. From an early age he loved to create, and often assembled his own illustrated books with accompanying stories - and then forced his parents to buy them.

Unfortunately this model was not scalable and Mark now seeks to promote his works to a wider audience.

Mark has also combined his storytelling prowess with music, creating a project called ‘Hibernal’ through which he interweaves original sci-fi stories with his own music to create an immersive theatrical experience for the listener. Combined with a professional voice cast and sound effects, these “audio movies” are available online through iTunes, Bandcamp and Amazon under the name ‘Hibernal’.

All very bleak, I know, but I also found there was a stark beauty in the loneliness of it all. I really wanted to write something in that world and explore the themes of loss, sorrow and hope, and I eventually did with 'After the Winter'.(less)

“At some point we have to confront the fact that there are things we can never do. Things we can never have. For some people, it destroys them. For others, they come through it and learn something about themselves. It makes them stronger.” I”
Mark R. Healy, The Seeds of New Earth

“A person dies, and we don’t feel a thing anymore. We’re all worried about the next problem coming, rather than taking the time to appreciate what we’ve lost now. That’s the worst thing.”
Mark R. Healy, Dawn of Procyon

“I could still find the right path in the time I had left. I’d been given a chance at life.  Maybe it wasn’t the kind of life I’d once seen for myself, or the one I’d expected, but it was a life nonetheless.  Another chance to experience this amazing, terrible, awe inspiring world. ”
Mark R. Healy, After the Winter
