About Mark Kozub
Mark Kozub has something to say. Seriously. Mark is an Edmonton author, freelance writer, a founding father of Edmonton's Raving Poets movement, bassist with The Raving Poets Band and also dabbles with painting and teaching writing classes for young people through the Writers Guild of Alberta's YouthWrite program. Above all, Mark wants to get out there and tell people about his novel, The Uptown Browns.
Inspired by the real life events of losing his mother, his marriage and his house within just a matter of months – and more so, learning to laugh and love life again – The Uptown Browns is everything that life is. In other words, it's filled with laughs, tears, hopes and fears and not always in that order.
Kozub is co-author of A Calgary Album (The Dundurn Group) and a contributing author to the Edmonton bestseller Big Enough Dreams. His poetry has been featured on CBC Radio, CBC TV, Book Television and The Bravo! Network, and his When I Was a Kid video poem appeared on the TV show ZeD and at various comedy festivals.
Although his background is in radio broadcasting, Kozub has gone on to write for many magazines, various government departments, Northlands (home of Capital EX) and many miscellaneous clients.
Kozub is currently 43 years old and feels distinctly blessed despite life’s calamities.
