Mark Wainwright

Author Bio:

Mark Wainwright (BS, MA, MFA) loves adventure. That quest to see new sights, explore new lands, and meet new people has taken him to over thirty countries. He’s ridden elephants in Thailand, hang glided in the Swiss Alps, and even been stranded in Morocco.
 
But Mark also loves finding adventure through the pages of a book. He especially enjoys reading stories that make him feel as if he is there with the characters and experiencing the action for himself.

For sixteen years, Mark led the editorial departments at several Christian publishers. Then, in 2017, Mark transitioned from publishing to teaching professional writing courses at a Christian college in Florida. He now uses his publishing experience to help guide the next generation of writers and editors.
 
Mark’s writing credits include publication in magazines, newspapers, and literary journals including Clubhouse Jr., ParentLife, Answers Magazine, Kids Answers, Today’s Christian Living, Refresh Magazine, Voyage of Discovery, Journal for Christian Educators, Christian Devotions, and Keys for Kids. 
 
In June 2021, Abeka (one of the largest publishers of Christian school resources in the world) published his novel "Trapped in a Hot Air Balloon." He also wrote "Awesome Facts About Space," a full-color nonfiction book for kids and teens (published in 2024 by Answers in Genesis).
 
Mark remains passionate about using his writing, editing, and publishing skills for the glory of God. He encourages his professional writing students to courageously influence their communities through the power of writing.
