Acquire the Fire

This last weekend I was honored to be part of the leadership group that went with my church's youth group to Acquire the Fire in Phoenix. For those who don't know, ATF is an intense Christian youth conference that travels around the states during...

My First Book Signing...

This last Saturday, I had my very first book signing. Borders Books and Music in Mesa, Arizona was my first spot and I had a blast doing it there. The store staff was more than friendly, the accommodations for my signing were wonderful and I just...

Mark P. Henderson replied to David N Alderman's discussion 'Daily Routine' in the group The HOT Seat -

Yes, David, I admire that too. Unfortunately, I can't have any kind of daily routine - a demanding and unpredictable job, a household to run and 90 year old mother requiring round-the-clock care leave me virtually no time for writing most days of ...

Wow! You have quite a routine down. That's awesome! Glad to hear that you're able to juggle all of that with your kids and husband as well. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question fully. :D

I love writing. That is my passion and it will continue to be my passion until the day I die. I currently have two different series I am working in, both of them under the Science Fiction/Fantasy genre. The first book of my newest series, Black Earth: End of the Innocence, was just self-published through Createspace.

I think writing is probably the greatest gift one could choose to pursue. To form new worlds, breathe life into new characters and manipulate the destinies of so many people - this is what is worth living for! If any of you out there have as equal a passion for writing, I would love to hear from you.

I am on here to make friends, learn more about writing and maybe network a bit. :D

Hope you all have a blessed time here!

Interview with the Author

Just recently I was honored to be interviewed by my good friend, Paeter Frandsen. Paeter and I have been friends for a while now, but originally only knew each other through the grapevine at the local church we both attended. Back in those days, I was still penning the first drafts of Expired Reality and he was putting on a stage production of Spirit Blade, his acclaimed science fiction/fantasy audio drama.

Besides being a friend, Paeter is also the creator of Spirit Blade Product… Continue

Nothing Beats a New Book

If I have one wish in this life, it's that books - in their physical form - never become outdated. Don't get me wrong here. I think that there is definitely a niche and a market for online stories. I have partaken in such things myself, writing short stories that are only available online. However, nothing really beats going down to my local bookstore (or ordering online) a brand new… Continue

Expired Reality: The Dark Past

Well, I'm off to a good start for National Novel Writing Month (NanoWrimo). I have 8,637 words written (past my daily goal for today) and I could probably sit down and write out more for the rest of the day, but alas, I have other responsibilities, like 2 other novels I am already working on.

The story I decided to work on this year for Nano is a bit different than years past. I usually work on full novels that are sequels to the novels I have already put into play. One year I did a short story… Continue

You have a considerable gift for evoking action sequences and for tinting tense, exciting situations with hints of the unexplained! Certainly those short tales will whet any reader's appetite for your novel.

:-) Mark.
