Authoring Dark and Twisted Narratives for Your Reading Pleasure

Robert was born in Lahr, Germany to Canadian Armed Forces parents, Ed and Joyce. He and his brother David, moved a lot in their younger years, seeing various parts of the Canadian Maritimes and Ontario. Growing up, and to this day, Robert struggled with dyslexia. One of the reasons he wanted to write this book was to try making it less of an impact in his life. He is also a movie buff and worked in film and television. He loved telling stories through the visual arts. This book is a continuation of his story telling. 

After graduating from Loyalist with his diploma in Television Broadcasting, he had the opportunity to move to Banff, Alberta working at the Banff Spring Hotel for three years until he landed his first video journalist (cameraman) job with the then, A-Channel. While he was at the Banff Springs Hotel, he had been trained to cook by some of the top chefs of their time and continues to cook to this day. He even cooked at the North Pole. But he can’t talk about that. Seriously. Don’t ask. 

Moving to Calgary to work for the A-Channel (sold and rebranded to CityTV) was quite the experience. He got to see all kinds of horrible, dark things the big city had to offer and where some of these “urban myths” have come from. Everything from real-life bad people, dog & cat abuse (and revenge), car chases, kidnappings, drugging (other people) mass murders and a plethora of other societal mishaps. He was there for over 16 years.   He wants to continue writing his darkly funny stories of action/adventure and will keep everyone posted.
