🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Max Porter
Max Porter is a literary fiction and horror novelist whose working life has for the longest time been part and parcel of literature. He started as a bookseller and was very successful at that as he was the manager of the Daunt Books Chelsea branch, which has won several awards over the years. Porter has come a long way since and in addition to his novels and short stories, he has also been writing for theatre. As the father to three kids, it made sense to do his writing from home, as it made it easier to interact with his kids whenever he had the time. Since he is a huge proponent of talking and emotional honesty, the highlight of his day is when he gets to sit down at the dinner table with his family.
