Mark Greathouse

Award-winning author Mark Greathouse’s love for the western genre draws upon his deep family roots and love of the outdoors honed from teen years hiking the Appalachian Trail and family travels across America’s frontier. A member of Western Writers of America and the Wild West History Association, he also contributes articles on the history of America’s west to western-themed magazines. Greathouse was recognized as a 2024 Finalist in western genre by the American Literary Book Awards for his sixth Tumbleweed Saga, Nueces Truth: Texans Face War’s Realities.

Greathouse began writing full time after a successful career as a business executive and later as an entrepreneurial investor and advisor. His service as president of several business and community nonprofits led to their extraordinary growth. He holds a BA in English and MBA in marketing. Greathouse donates time and books annually to support wounded military warriors. He was a Boy Scout leader (Eagle Scout) and served on a local school board.

Greathouse has prayerfully embarked on the Frontier Chronicles, of a series of western novels aimed at adventure-minded teens and young adults while weaving a Christian message within their fabric. His Frontier Chronicles are aimed at lighting fires of truth, faith, hope, and life purpose in the bellies of today’s teen boys and girls. Just as seeds must be sown to reap the harvest, so the seeds of faith must be planted to raise tomorrow’s men and women.
