Biography
Mark has wide-ranging interests – science, history, theology, philosophy, poetry, biblical studies, speech craft and writing craft. His most recent area of research is on Christian pacifist resistance to Nazi oppression in WWII France. He also has a deep love for Canada’s First Peoples. His own writings gather and blend all of these influences. He is currently working on three books, all novels: David: Reign, The Slide, and Shelter Me. He enjoys walking, cycling, motorbiking, and all forms of fishing, especially involving fly rods and bending rivers.
