Mark Paul Oleksiw, Author

Munching on the Sun is Mark Paul Oleksiw’s second novel and a tribute to the friendships formed in his university days and the music echoing in his memories. At the heart of Munching on the Sun is a love story between two idealists and an unforgettable journey into the spirit of a restless soul.

The Boys Who Danced with the Moon was Mark Paul Oleksiw’s debut novel.  Years in the making, it is about growing up and the need to reclaim not our youth but, the hopefulness of our teenage years.  You will never forget the heart-warming friendship between three very different teenagers at the center of this novel, nor the journey of the main character to find himself again. Enjoy the lyrical prose of Mark and the emotions of first love and loss.

Time’s Musicians is my third novel, debuting in 2020. It was nominated as a semi-finalist for the Booklife Prize Award in Teen and Young Adult Fiction. The story is about Billy, a highly creative, curious, and lonely child.  When his friendship with an imaginative but troubled schoolmate ends in tragedy, Billy’s quest to solve the mysteries of his childhood and life begins. Enjoy this unique teen and young adult psychological thriller.  Discover whether Billy is the villain in his story journey, or is there a more profound story unfolding that will unveil what truly stirs in Billy’s soul?

The novel has science fiction elements and pays homage to the creative artistry of comic books.
