Robert Christy
Robert Christy was born and raised in Ottawa, where he currently lives. Christy began writing and jotting down story ideas throughout his life. Once retired from a career that paid the bills, he seriously began editing his collection to produce this volume.
His writing efforts with a hopeful focus on publishing were triggered when, near the end of his secondary school years, the publisher-editor of the local weekly newspaper asked him to write about sports in his high school. Much later, he wrote and had published articles and opinion pieces for the daily press and magazines, often focusing in issues of living and participating in the workforce while coping with challenges of physical and communication disabilities.
He has previously self-published a novel, Gemini Smiled and now has a volume of poems, In the Garden of My Mind, and a volume of short stories, Ten Roads: Stories of Paths Taken published by Burnstown Publishing. He is now working on producing a stuttering therapy diary.
