Gary D. Robson

Gary Robson never decided what he wants to be when (if?) he grows up. In addition to being a successful author with 750,000 copies of his books sold, he’s been a software engineer, microelectronics designer, adjunct college professor, curriculum designer, and voice actor. He has owned a bookstore, a tea & game shop, and a small-town newspaper. Most recently, he was executive director of a wildlife sanctuary.

Along the way, he became an expert in closed captioning technology for deaf and hard-of-hearing people, which resulted in three books, three U.S. patents, and a TEDx talk.

Throughout all of life’s journeys, one thing remained constant for Gary: writing. Dozens of books, hundreds of articles, and a handful of technical manuals. Most was nonfiction, until he tried writing children’s books. His Who Pooped in the Park series of animal scat & track books for kids are his best-known and best-selling books.

At last, Gary is semi-retired. The kids are on their own, so it’s just him, his wife, two dogs, and two cats. Settled in a small town near Yellowstone Park, surrounded by lots of books and really good tea, he finally has time to write what he loves to read: fantasy!

His latest book is The Bounds of Magic, book 1 in the Tryllevær Saga, and there’s more to come!
