Mark Shaw
Mark A. Shaw grew up in Baltimore, Maryland, where the urban environment sparked his imagination and creativity.
His upbringing instilled a deep appreciation for wilderness and countryside, which he lacked in his youth.
Shaw's experiences, from childhood play to his current life in Vancouver, B.C., inspire his writing.
He draws upon his adventures and surroundings to craft stories, as evidenced in his first novel, "The Keeper of the Wind." Shaw's background includes service in the U.S. Navy, adding to his diverse life experiences.
His writing is influenced by his walks through nearby woods and forests, which mirror the settings in his literary works.
