Mark writes historical fiction with a passion, and eagerly reads everything from fantasy to literature. Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, he has been an avid traveler and backpacker, particularly in Europe and North America. He earned his BA and MA from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, where he also met his beautiful wife.

Hi Katya,
Well, sort of both:) I had lots of beta readers and I did find an editor before submitting my manuscript to agents. Then once I had an agent and we signed with a publisher, St. Martin's has their own editors who continued to send me revisions.

I can probably answer you in more detail via email if you want, either at my website (marknoce.com) or at [email protected].

I hope that helps, but please ask away if you have more questions. I'd be happy to help:)(less)

Hi Carol,
Sorry for the delayed response! It was great speaking at Mills again on career day. I'd love to answer all your questions on agents, publishing, and tech writing too...but it's a bit of a long story and these Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ windows are a bit tiny. Can you email me at my website marknoce.com? Or just directly at [email protected]. I can answer in more length there:)

Thanks for your interest! (less)

Next Manuscript!

Whew, it's been a while, but I've finally got my next manuscript finished! It's entitled A Proper Murder and is my latest murder mystery. It's always satisfying when you get to type "The End" at the end of a draft, but this is especially fun when it's a historical murder mystery. My agent really liked a previous murder mystery I gave her, and wanted to see something similar, so I suggested I try w

“I never was the type of noblewoman to stay by the hearth while the men rode into battle anyway. As my father always used to say with the shake of his head, the blood of the Old Tribes runs strong in me.”
Mark Noce, Dark Winds Rising

“Hot-blooded men make war. It’s up to cool-headed queens like us to make the peace.”
Mark Noce, Dark Winds Rising

“I’m all alone against the darkness. Dark winds rising against me.”
Mark Noce, Dark Winds Rising
