Mark Foster

Hello there.

For more years than I care to remember I have been writing stories with my illustrator friend, Phillip Burrows. Our creative process starts with caffeine, followed by biscuits, then sometimes chips. Several times we have been so amused with each other's company we forget to come up with any story ideas.

Even though we live many miles apart, we have an uncanny knack of knowing what each other is thinking. For instance, when iPhone 4 came out I knew Phil would want one - and he knew I would too. How weird is that?

Our books mirror reality. Dogs finding lost people, robots robbing old ladies, cats getting lost in Pyramids, aliens abducting pilots ... all those things that are part of our normal lives. Well, some people's.

Anyway, thanks for dropping in. If you're ever over Wiltshire way do get in touch and I'll show you where there are some really big stones in a circle. Or if you'd like a great freelance copywriter who writes books in his spare time, take a look at www.fostercopy.com. Bye for now.

p.s. That scarey bloke over there, isn't side-show Bob, it really is me. I'm far better looking in real life. At least that's what I keep telling myself.
