About Wakefield Mahon

Picture
Wakefield Mahon is a SFWA member with stories in various genres published in multiple anthologies and publications.  He is also the  host of Motivation Monday, a weekly flash fiction contest to help writer's hone their skills.

I would have titled this website "Diaries of a Madman" but that was already taken.  I don't have a split personality but my muse does.  On any given day you will find me writing code, poetry, music or verse in no particular order.  I don't have a particular genre although it seems easier to sell horror than anything else. 

I am in love with stories and storytelling.  I will read a horribly written book to the end just to see how the story resolved.  As part of my learning experiment, I have deliberately written in every genre I could find a market for and a few I still haven't found a market for.  There was a time when I blogged consistently but I just have too much else going on.

My goal, like most every artist is to inspire you, challenge you and hopefully amuse you in the process.  You can find my short stories in half a dozen anthologies and my first children's book on Amazon and Smashwords.
