I was weened on Greek Mythology, graduated to Edgar Rice Burroughs & then moved to James A. Michener and then on to the Influences listed. I began writing non-fiction in 1992 - Letters to the Editor, grants, Op-EDs and such and started writing fiction by accident, in 2004. I just released my book concerning the US Election 2016. It's pretty much a theory of everything. http://www.markjabbour.com
