He’s also a passable dancer, an avid tabletop roleplayer, a dad, a husband, a politics junkie and a Methodist, if any of that matters to you.
For the last five years, Bob has made his living writing on the Internet. He works at his kitchen table, in his basement, at local colleges, at the Souper Cafe’, and anywhere else he feels like. Bob loves the writing life, and wouldn’t trade it for any of the hats that he’s worn in the past.
