I was born in Marysville, California in 1968. My family had always been poor, but we worked hard to maintain our needs.
Being raised, I was always the odd ball. What I mean by that is, I always focused on the bigger picture and paid very little attention to the details. My mind was full of wonder and excitement. I loved school and meeting new people, so that I could hear their stories.
After graduating from High School, I traveled around a bit, meeting new and interesting people. Getting my fill of that, I enlisted into the Navy, the discipline learned there was good for me.
I then worked many jobs after leaving the service. I was a mechanic, a cook, a garbage man, a secretary, and did some stints in management.
I then got my Masters degree in I was born in Marysville, California in 1968. My family had always been poor, but we worked hard to maintain our needs.

I then got my Masters degree in Medical Administration through some online technical institutes and later finished up at Wichita State University. I continued my education by getting my Doctorate for Cultural Philosophies from another major university. I am now currently working on getting a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice with another online technical institute. I told you that I love school...lol.
I started writing seriously about eight years ago. I started out with short stories, and eventually worked my way up to fictional novels. I have been published in MOM magazine, Alfred Hitchcock, Albany Democrat Herald, and a few others.
The things I look for in my stories are topics that most people are uncomfortable with talking about. So I tend to gravitate towards the paranormal. I have had a lot of good leads given to me by my friends, family, and readers. Sometimes my stories do stem from personal experiences.
I must add here though. Most writers know the first rule to a successful story and in depth characters is to write about what you know.
Although, my books are fictional, I do use the emotions (ONLY) of what I know with my characters. None of my characters are true to form of the people I have met in my life. Nor are any of the characters me. So don't try to read too much into the stories, just enjoy them.
I would love if you would leave a comment on here, just to let me know how you are and if you have any ideas for a book. Otherwise you can reach me at these other places. Thanks, and happy reading.

Quotes by Mark Miner (?)

“All towns have their secrets, and Albany/Corvallis was no exception. But secrets are not secrets unless almost everybody knows something about them, and then they become accepted, if submerged part of everyday life, too familiar and mundane to be of lasting interest to anyone but a few gossips - and poor fare for them.”
