ABOUT

Welcome. Feel free to poke about. There’s plenty of content here to continue the journey.

If you’re a fan of The Alexandria Rising Chronicles, I recommend visiting the multi-media page where you can view films salvaged from expeditions in the 1930s to the expanded appendices for every Easter egg in the series.

If you are a follower of Arestus and his adventures, I have some blogs on where the names of cities and characters originated.

About me? Well, I like hiking, gardening, second breakfast, strong coffee and good storytelling that includes everything from the film ‘1917’ to Carl Sandburg’s verse and, of course, the masters such as C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolken, Ralph Ellison, Pat Conroy, Ferrol Sams, and Flannery O’Conner.

I worked for nearly 20 years as a journalist, columnist and managing editor in metro Atlanta’s competitive media landscape before leaving print media in 2017. These days, I work in creative communications and videography for a nonprofit when I am not writing fiction.

I have several interviews you can read about on the Press and Reviews tab. I teach a few creative writing classes a year and am also always seeking new reading recommendations. If you have other questions, ideas or inquiries, feel free to email me at markwallacemaguire@gmail.com.

I am on twitter and Instagram, but primarily use Facebook. You can follow my author page here.

My books are available on amazon, nook and other digital platforms. Hard copies are sold at select bookstores in Georgia including Warm Springs Cellars, Warm Springs, Georgia, Pretty Good Books in LaGrange, Georgia and Corner Arts Gallery and Studio, Newnan, Georgia.

Feel free to connect with me and let’s chat.
