Page One - The Writer's Podcast Ep. 238 - MK Hardy on writing as a pair for The Needfire
Watch this episode as a full video interview on YouTube
MK Hardy is the pen name for two geeky women living and writing together in Scotland. Their debut Sapphic Gothic Horror, The Needfire, comes from Solaris in the UK in July 2025. They were mentees in the Pitch Wars 2020-21 programme, and mentors for Queery Fest 2022. They are organisers and facilitators for Scotland’s Cymera Festival.
We had great fun chatting with Morag and Erin, hearing about how they first came to write together, and talk about the (ever evolving) process of how that works. We also hear about what inspired their debut, The Needfire, and why they want to keep exploring a variety of stories.
