Mark English
As an ex-rocket scientist Mark has an unwitting talent for taking the everyday magic out of twinkling stars, sunsets, colourful flames dancing in a roaring fire, and rainbows. This does not stop him seeing the magic differently and in alternate colours. The newly reconstructed rumbly city of Christchurch, NZ, is where he hails from. This has touched a lot of his writing, be it science fiction or the darker speculative style that reflects his experiences. New Zealand hosts an amazingly supportive speculative fiction society, and Mark acknowledges the major part that SpecFicNZ has played in encouraging his work, and also Critical Mass (you know who you are!) for being the critique group he needed.
Works Published in DreamForge
Every dollar we receive through subscriptions, Patreon, Kickstarter, Kofi, and sales of our print and ebooks (through Amazon and our website) goes directly to supporting authors and artists. Our entire operation runs on volunteer efforts, ensuring that every contribution helps new and established authors from around the world tell their uplifting stories of hope.
If you’re an author, consider joining our Patreon at the DreamCaster level. This exclusive tier grants you access to monthly Zoom meetings featuring special guests and discussions designed to help you grow as a writer and navigate the business of writing. Can’t make a meeting? Members also get access to a library of recorded sessions.
Please consider supporting DreamForge Magazine.
DreamForge is a volunteer effort supported by Dreamers like you. Every small donation helps us to buy hopeful stories and help new authors learn how to bring hope into this crazy world.
Hope is not an illusion; it's a perspective backed by engagement with the world, whatever the condition of the world may be. Like the crew of the Enterprise, we don't expect everyone to share our values, only that we will engage them with ours, and in the course of doing so, possibly, just possibly, win a better future.
Thank you for your support!
