'Dogs Chase Cars'
http://www.facebook.com/markporter.writer
I am a Liverpool based (Preston raised) writer of fiction.
I'm into loud rock music and real ale.
I have boxed and written about boxing (Britishboxing.net and U.S. based 15rounds.com).
I have also appeared on the London and Manchester stand-up comedy circuits, including appearances at both Comedy Stores and a couple of (very) late night TV appearances.
I used to be the drummer in Preston based Doublegone Johnson and Lancaster based The Filthy Countryboys.
I have worked in almost one hundred professions and have decided that I prefer writing novels.
Debut novel 'Dogs Chase Cars' is available through Drugstore Books on e-book and in paperback -http://drugstorebooks.com/
Second novel 'Moscow Drive' is available through Black Door Books through Amazon.co.uk/Amazon.com etc
GET STUPID! is a noir novella based in 1960s Philadelphia and was written, initially, on this site in regular instalments. The book was published in 2015.

The site also features a series of author interviews that looks at the process of writing, what it takes to write and publish a novel and how different writers approach the task. My hope is that this feature will form an integral part of the site and serve as an important resource to new writers, or a point of interest for the curious reader who wonders if they 'have a book in me.' That's how we all start.
