About me:
I live in Chesterfield, in the Midlands in the UK, and I write horror and dark fantasy. My first collection came out in 2006 and I'm currently trying to place a novel whilst working on the second one, and I'm also very interested in screenwriting. I also teach creative writing, and write reviews/articles/interviews for various magazines - as long as it's involved with writing in some way, I'll do it :)
Details of what I've done or am currently doing can be seen on my website, www.marieoregan.net, and I was Chairperson of the British Fantasy Society for four years, from 2004-2008.
I have four great kids, and am married to horror writer Paul Kane.
|
Who I'd like to meet:
Anyone interested in the genre - especially other writers, or people involved in genre film-making in some way.
