edit data

Mark A. Daniel is a writer of the supernatural thriller genre including the recent release "Convergence".

Taking the advice of his third-grade teacher to “pursue writing of some kind as a career,” he promptly wrote his first book From Six Feet to Two Inches. It was about 10 pages long. He never looked back.

He has since completed eight novels and two short story collections. Black Mass, Resurrection, The Gifted, Burial Grounds and The Threshold are available today, as are the short stories in Razor’s Edge 1 and Razor’s Edge 2.

Mark lives and writes on a small ranch in rural West Texas, accompanied by his wife of 30 years, a few dogs, several cats, and a varying number of chickens. ...more

Mark Daniel liked Momma T's Books's review of Resolution: Emmy's Story: Part 3 of the Black Mass Saga: "A backstory for the ages. I love Emmy. And this shows you where she started and how she BECAME, the great and glorious, bad witch that she is. There were funny moments. There were heartfelt moments with her sisters.

Mark Daniel liked Momma T's Books's review of Convergence (Crossroads Book 3): "A very engrossing tale that I didn't want to and couldn't put down. The emotional hold this one has on you. You've come to know these characters in depth. But the feel you get from the beginning, has your gut folding in on itself. Only wishing for th" Read more of this review »

Mark Daniel liked Shari's review of Crossroads: "The shocking beginning drew me in. Strong creepy vibes. Enjoyed how the story unfolded from multiple POVs. Loved Patch.

Tim Wilbur answered Mark Daniel's question: Hello Tim - I'd love to learn more about my "story error" in Crossroads. I do pay for a professional edit, and have some really good (thorough) ARC readers, but none of them have caught the error and of course I would like to fix it. Thank you. How funny, Goodreads wouldn't let me submit this without a question mark, so here it is? I’m so sorry I didn’t see this until now! No one ever asks me anything, lol. Sorry again for blowing it out of proportion, but I hope you are well! Excellent book, in case I haven’t said so enough. 😎
