About the Author

Mark Fearing

Raised by a pack of wild geese, Mark learned to fly at an early age. No? How about - raised by gophers Mark learned to dig extremely fast at a young age. No matter the truth of those first statements I can say that I grew up near St. Paul Minnesota and ended up graduating from The University of Wisconsin, Madison. I enjoyed studying ancient art history, comparative literature and Chinese, but ended up with a BFA focused on design. I proceeded to work in politics, advertising and graphic design in Madison until I transferred myself to Los Angeles where I worked in graphic design, motion graphics, video games, animation for TV and film and created several TV shows that never saw the light of day or even the glow of a TV. I later attend the MFA program in animation at UCLA where I made The Thing with No Head. The best animated short ever made. Ever. OK. That's subjective.I ended up working as an art director for Sony Online, a new media creative director for Pearson Television and a current production manager for Walt Disney TV Animation.Along the way I was writing and illustrating books. Sending them out and enjoying the resulting letters that varied between condemnation 'you should never work in children's books' to, 'send more samples'.In 2007 a small publisher in Long Beach published several of my comic books. In 2009, Tricycle Press published The Book That Eats People, which I illustrated and since then I have been fortunate enough to work on 7 additional books including The Three Little Aliens and the Big Bad Robot from Random House, Earthling!, a graphic novel for readers 8 and up from Chronicle Books and So You Want To Catch Bigfoot from Candlewick Press.My favorite genres are science fiction, horror and humor. Or a combination of all three.And oddly enough, geese didn't teach me to fly. It was the gophers that taught me that. Who'd a guessed!? Visit my website - https://www.markfearing.com
