Books and other writing by Mark

5th May 2016 by Mark
 

The books

I’m releasing a Regency novel involving the Austen character Mr Bennet in early November – a tale of love, regret, and nerve tonics. More books will follow in 2018, including a humorous work of “fictional non-fiction” from the Austen era. More details nearer the time!

Travel writing

Humour and fiction is my calling, sports writing my hobby, and travel writing the consequence of falling in love.

With my wife, which is why I live in Vienna. And with the city itself, which is why I publish Visiting Vienna.

It’s a declaration of love, but the best love is open and honest, funny and imperfect. And so it is with Visiting Vienna – a website travel guide and advice hub for visitors…written with no agenda and no marketing remit from the Viennese authorities.

You should visit.

Sports writing

Sport as hobby or, in my case, sports writing as hobby.

I’m interested in stories and emotions. And sports, more specifically football, is a swirling mass of both.

My partner in crime sport is Alex, a man wiser than the wisest of the wise. Probable winner of the Mr. Wise competition, except he’d be too wise to waste time attending.

Together we write “Football is all about…“, which peels away the veneer of the sport to reveal the truth and fiction behind the beautiful game.

Sometimes we’re serious. Sometimes we’re not. Sometimes we’re both – at the same time. But everywhere there is a little seed of truth, a wry smile and a love of 22 players kicking a leather ball around for 90 minutes.
