About the author

Mark Andersen makes stuff up. Fortunately for everyone who knows him, he restricts his fancy to writing fiction. He's the author of a contemporary fantasy series, Merlin's Thread. The first of this series, Merlin's Knot, is available for preorder and will be released May 5, 2016. He started writing professionally in 1999. For eleven years, he wrote science articles for Oilfield Review; for nine of those years he was the journal's executive editor. Sadly, he couldn't make things up during that part of his writing career. He has a PhD in physics from the Johns Hopkins University and worked in the oil industry for thirty-four years as a research scientist, domain expert, and writer. Now, Mark writes full time. No, really … he wouldn't make that up.
