Robert Broomall

For as long as I can remember, I've wanted to be a writer. I was one of those kids who always had his nose stuck in a book. My head was full of exotic characters and places and events, and my dream was to be able to create stories like the ones I read. Now that I actually am a writer, I sometimes can't believe it's happened. It seems like it was someone else who wrote those books. Either way, it's a dream come true.

Influences? C.S. Forester (the one and only), Robert Louis Stevenson, Agatha Christie, and others too numerous to mention. Contemporary influences -- the late George MacDonald Fraser and Bernard Cornwell.
