Mark Reps

Mark Reps has been a writer and storyteller his whole life. Born in small-town southeastern Minnesota, he trained as a mathematician and chiropractor but never lost his love of telling or writing a good story. As an avid desert wilderness hiker Mark spends a great deal of time roaming the desert and other terrains of southeastern Arizona from December to May. A chance meeting with an old-time colorful sheriff led him to develop the Zeb Hanks character and the world that surrounds him. Mark returns often to southeastern Arizona for inspiration, information, and to maintain the general feel of the area.
