Mark Paul Oleksiw

Born in the late 60’s, Mark Paul Oleksiw grew up in the suburbs of Montreal hoping to be one of The Three Investigators . Influenced by guitar bands, all things satirical and of course, books that made him wonder, he did manage to graduate from McGill University. Mark still lives in his hometown with his wife, three teenage boys, and cat. And yes, his music is still too loud and he still daydreams a little too often. The Boys Who Danced with the Moon was his debut novel and was awarded the Wishing Shelf Red Ribbon Award. His follow-up, Munching on the Sun , has earned rave reviews as a unique coming-of-age love story. His latest novel, Time’s Musicians , was a semi-finalist for the Booklife Prize in Fiction in 2020.You can learn more about Mark and his upcoming novels at www.markoleksiw.com or by following him on twitter@markpauloleksiw.
