Author Bio

Robert was raised up in the Appalachian Mountains. He and his wife, "Mimi," have five children and have lived in many places. Not known for his wisdom--yet now and then he can be wise. Not known for his generosity--yet he will sometimes give. Not known for his education--he has been to many schools. Ask about his literary models, he names W. H. Auden and Robert Frost. He considers himself the Matisse of Poetry, though no one else has called him that. Sometimes, late at night, he dreams of taking what's left of his family and moving to Abyssinia until he wakes and remembers Abyssinia no longer exits. He watches sunsets and dreams in haiku.
