Doctor by day, horror writer by night: Heguen D'merak's double life
Original: Médico de día. Escritor de noche. Heguen D’merak empezó con un poema sobre flores a los siete años. Hoy odia la poesía y
Heguen D'merak, a doctor who writes in his spare hours, is being featured in an interview about his unusual path. He began writing poetry at the age of seven with a poem about flowers, but says he now hates poetry and has turned to horror, science fiction and noir fiction, though he remains unconvinced by his own noir work. Readers of Spanish-language fiction are sharing the profile and discussing his shift from verse to darker genres.
Why now: A new interview profiling the author's journey from childhood poet to genre fiction writer has drawn attention from Spanish-language readers.
