Mark Atley

Mark Atley writes crime stories. The characters he met on the streets meet those he drew in his head. They interact with exhilarating results. The ride is wild and entertaining, and the dialog bounces like an old pickup in a pothole-ridden back alley. Mark’s first novel The Olympian was positively received. A Bright Young Man will be published by Close to the Bone in 2022. His short fiction appeared in Punk Noir Magazine, Bristol Noir, and others. Mark works as a detective for a suburb of Tulsa, Oklahoma. He graduated from Oklahoma State University with two degrees in journalism. Follow Mark on Twitter @markatley.
