    Marcus Foxwell

    "I have been writing pretty much since high school really. It's something that I've always enjoyed and has kept me sane through all of those mad times where no other therapy or advice has helped. I suppose it's a lot healthier to kill somebody on paper than go on a rampage really. I suppose you've just got to take all of that negative energy and turn it back into something positive"."I write mainly in the genres of horror, science fiction, psychological thrillers; I've even created a slasher tale and an existential jelly baby story. I'll try anything once, it's all part of growing as a human being really".Marcus is Lancashire (U.K) born and bred although he has spent some time in Southern Africa. He writes in many fiction genres and continues a thirty year passion for story telling that first began back in high school.
