WHERE IT BEGAN
Originally from western Pennsylvania, a pivotal point in A.G. Mock's literary journey took place at age 19 when he chose to relocate on his own to England to spend his junior of college studying abroad. "I just figured, 'why not?'" At the time he had no idea that 9 months would turn into nearly 13 years...or that by doing so he was actually following in the footsteps of Edgar Allan Poe, Henry James, T.S. Eliot, Sylvia Plat, Mark Twain and more.

Making his home in Yorkshire, Mock became inspired by the gothic energy of the bleak and haunting Yorkshire Moors while being introduced to the works of such literary masters as James Herbert, Ruth Rendell, and the iconic mother of mysteries, Agatha Christie.

And so, coupled with his American roots, Mock's own unique writing style began to take shape. Readers often describe it as visceral, emotive, poetic and cinematic.
