Autorenporträt
Deborah Makarios was raised in the space between worlds and maintains an eccentric orbit.She found her niche at the age of six when in short succession she read The B.F.G., her first Agatha Christie (Why Didn't They Ask Evans?) and encountered her first P.G. Wodehouse (Something Fresh - saying "Heh! Mer!" is enough to make her laugh, decades later). Her personal motto is Tolle Et Lege - pick it up and read it - regardless of whether "it" is a Bible, a book or a jar of home-made marmalade.She keeps her Luddite tendencies under sufficient control to allow for regular blog posts, but nothing can quash her fondness for old technologies. Her favourite phrases are "piston-filling fountain pen" and "annotated typescript."Her mission is to write books, plays and blog posts like cups of tea: warm, heartening and restorative. She believes in happy endings, the ultimate triumph of good over evil, and always having a clean handkerchief. It is, however, against her religious principles to believe in "normal."She lives among the largely unsuspecting populace of New Zealand with a very moderate number of cats, and her brilliant, albeit marginally less eccentric, husband.She can be found online at deborah.makarios.nz or on Mastodon.
