Mac Black has had fun performing daft roles in amateur theatre and has written and presented silly poetry - he enjoys writing quirky fiction in the hope of gaining wry smiles. Mac's principle hero, Derek is never alone when it comes to looking for misfortune - there are always others in the stories to help him find it! Following the successful publication of his five-volume young adult Derek series enjoying Sweaty's exploits as a young man, Mac has now turned back thirty years to the eighties and has started a series for younger readers, exploring Sweaty's childhood.
