About Mark Anthony Smith
I was born in Hull and I've loved books from an early age. I read English at The University of Hull before graduating in Social Sciences with The Open University. I'm really pleased that Hull won the U.K. City of Culture 2017 as I saw what it did for Liverpool.
I never thought I'd write poetry. But I was drawn to a book on Haiku in 2014. I started working with this form towards the end of that year. I had 'Hearts of the matter' commended in a National Magazine. Some of my other poems appear in a 2016 International anthology with all proceeds to Rescue animals.
In 2018, I've contributed to the album 'Safe and warm' by 'Musicians for homeless' with a monologue kindly read by the actor Ian Ralph. Please support those less fortunate.
WINNER: November 2019 - 'The Hermit' - Blue Animal Literature @BlueLiterature .
Poetry can be just as weighty as a novel. It's condensed but not watered down. I'm currently working on fiction projects. Short stories and poems have appeared in The Horror Tree: Trembling With Fear, Penumbric Speculative Fiction Magazine, Aphotic Realm, Rune Bear, Detritus, Fiction Kitchen Berlin, The Cabinet of Heed, Nymphs, Spelk, Eerie River, Dodging The Rain, InkPantry, Red Cape Publishing and more.
I hope you enjoy reading the fictions and poems as much as I did shaping them.

This unforgettable treatise on the physical and emotional needs of a person with a debilitating disability is wonderfully, and many times sadly, insightful. The basic needs of human interaction are beautifully depicted throughout… The style of writing is captivating, engaging the reader throughout each section. – Reader’s Favorite 5 Star Review
Elizabeth used to cross the road to avoid its long shadows.
Kim wakes from fevered, sweat-soaked nightmares if she finally sleeps.
That house is the focus of many tall tales.
But some friends can get away with murder to dispel a few ghost stories.
Some friends are strong enough to confront their darkest fears and put a few skeletons to bed.
Aren't they?
That house...it penetrates the soul!
