Hello there, thanks for letting me join, I thought I'd say hi and answer the ten questions in the hope that it tells you something about me - but for goodness sake, don't let on what it is. Not to me anyway. Whisper it in dark corners and haunted forests where I won't be able to hear you.
- What’s your name? Paul MacEoghain
- Where are you from? Liverpool originally, I've lived in Wrexham since 1997
- Why do you write/want to write? To tell the stories currently taking up far too much room in my head.
- What’s your favourite story? A Christmas Carol.
- Who’s your favourite fictional character? Doctor Who.
- Favourite writer? Terence Dicks.
- What world do you wish you’d come up with? Alan Dean Foster's Spellsinger universe.
- If you could change the ending of any existing story, what would it be (and why)? Jaws. I'm with Spielberg on that one. The ending is so anticlimactic after the events of the preceding story. The shark just dies? Nah, Blow it up! Smile you sonuva...
- What would the story of your life be called? I'm currently writing it. At the moment it has the working title of "The Story So fa...", but that'll change once something better comes along. Anyway, what it does have is a subtitle on the first page reading: "The events depicted in this book are true. Except the bits that aren't." It's a semi-fictional autobiography.
- Where do you hope to get to with your writing? Fortune and Glory. Failing that I'd be happy just to have somebody say they enjoyed it.
