Gordon MacKinney
The fictional town Willigsville is largely based on the small Missouri town, Higginsville, where I spent much of my childhood. The pros and cons of small-town America, such as loyalty and gossip, respectively, came from those memories. Not based on my history: opioid infestation and brutal murder. Fortunately, those only appear in my fiction.
