Mark E. Welch was born in 1964 in the coastal town of Kittery, Maine. From a young age, he demonstrated a love of reading and writing, particularly the works of E.B. White (famous for “Charlotte’s Web”), Mark Twain, and Ernest Hemingway.
His passion for the arts, which includes reading, writing, and music, has led him to become an accomplished novelist and writer. Welch’s writing career was highlighted by the publication of a children’s book titled “Kiwa’s Story,” which narrates the journey of a young dolphin searching for her lost mother, as well as 12 novels and several short stories.
His choice of genres includes fiction, such as his novel *A Haunting on Cape Neddick*, historical fiction like *Spirits & Tales*, and stories involving his latest character, Detective Charles W. Radcliff III, a bungling detective who somehow, through unorthodox means, seems to find out who done it.
He currently lives in the coastal region of Viana Do Costello, Portugal, in the historic district of Montedor with his wife Eva and their two Boxer dogs, Thor and True Blue, where he continues to write.
