Bob is an Sr. Engineering Manager by day and a creative writer by night. He has had three short stories published in Writer’s magazines. He took first prize in the Rest Stop Writer's Creative writing contest. His articles on creative writing and writer’s “flow” have been published in, and are on record at the Canadian National Library.
One of his articles on writing was reprinted in the “Romance Writers of America” newsletter. He is the moderator for the “Writer’s Life” on “WBBS,” one of the largest writers websites on the Internet.
His first book “The Misfits of Channel 10” has many good reviews by readers as well as other authors. It is also available in soft cover from Lulu.com website as indicated above.
Bob enjoys imaginative, creative writing, writing about the creative writing process, and psychology. He writes from his gut about feelings, nostalgia, science fiction, “Coming-of-Age,” and the unusual, weird things that happen to normal and sometimes supernormal people.
Bob presently resides in Redmond Washington with his lovely wife Maureen and five adult children who have flown the nest and are pursuing life in their own unique ways.
Two copies of Each Book - As you might have noticed, I am selling two editions of my books. One is just published by Lulu and does not have an ISBN (needed for worldwide distribution) and is not available in book stores. The more expensive version has an ISBN and it is available in Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble and other fine book stores worldwide. The content is the same. You decide if you want to be frugel and buy the Lulu edition or pay more for the ISBN edition.
Thanks
Bob

Print: $11.98 Download: $4.99 Lulu Edition - Many people have adventures from the past, coming-of-age experiences, narrow escapes, hair-brained adventures with their friends, things that happened when in school or at a specific job, weird family members or friends, strange and unbelievable occurrences, heart rending and passionate love stories. In short, things, which they know, will make a great book or even a best seller! They finally set everything up, so they have the method, the opportunity and the motive and then nothing! They stare at the white sheet of paper or a computer monitor and their heart races, their palms get sweaty and their mouths dry. They feel like a fraud. Things like “Was I just kidding myself? I’m no writer! What was I thinking?” Streak through their heads and then anxiety sets in, and even fear. Then it becomes a delaying action. It isn’t very much fun facing that blank screen. It is similar to a firing squad except that the target is much more up-close and personal, it’s your self-esteem and pride.
