About Mark Everett Stone

Picture
Born in Helsinki, Finland (The Land of the Uncommonly Stubborn), Mark Everett Stone arrived in the U.S. at a young age and promptly dove into the world of the fantastic. Starting at age seven with theIliad and the Odyssey, he went on to consume every scrap of Norse Mythology he could get his grubby little paws on. At age thirteen he graduated to Tolkien and Heinlein, building up a book collection that soon rivaled the local public library’s.
In college Mark majored in Journalism and minored in English. The newspaper business wasn’t for him, so he did what every good writer does: find work in a wide variety of fields that included catering, bartending, and restaurant management. After getting married, he sold Hyundais (before they became popular) and, because he lives in Colorado, Subarus. Eventually he matured enough to be able to sit down and just write.
Currently Mark is working on his newest novel "Chicago: The Windigo City" and has two more coming out very soon: "I left my Haunt in San Francisco" and "The Judas Line". Both from Camel Press. Recently, he has been featured in the Arts and Entertainment section of the Denver Post.
To be released March 15, 2013: I left my Haunt in San Francisco, the third in the BSI series, which is garnering rave reviews.
