Mark Packard spent the last 38 years as a trial attorney and is now retired from the courtroom and working as a mediator. In a life before lawyering he was a journalist and regrets waiting far too long before jumping off the merry-go-round to write his first novel, Rip the Sky. While he enjoys mediating, he much prefers catching ideas out of thin air and prays he can hang around long enough to craft a few more tales.
