Mark Juddery – Freelance Writer

Writer, author and journalist

As well as books, I write for magazines, newspapers, radio and television.

BUSTED! THE 50 MOST OVERRATED THINGS IN HISTORY (published in Australia and NZ by Random House) will be published in the U.S. in 2010 by Penguin Books. You can discuss this book with me on the Busted! blog at http://50-most-overrated.blogspot.com

I also have a blog on Mental Floss online, writing regular lists - including 8 Miraculous Super-Hero Resurrections and 7 Great Oscar Night Surprises.

Meanwhile, my musings can be read every week in my column in Monday's edition of The Canberra Times (but only in the paper version). I've started to put some of the columns on this site and on my blog WISHFUL THINKING.

1975: AUSTRALIA'S GREATEST YEAR, published by John Wiley & Sons, is still available from Abbey's Bookshop and other booksellers.

Become a Movie Reviewer, my e-book guide published by Fabjob.com, is also still available. (It's written for U.S. writers, but it's been popular with writers and film buffs everywhere else).

Question: As a writer, where do I get my inspiration?
Answer: Well, everywhere... but have a look at what inspires me the most...
