Rob Dearsley

I always liked making up stories. Now, I guess I'm doing it on a larger scale.
When I was a child, bedtime stories were down to my dad. In an effort keep himself sane, we quickly progressed from Puddle Lane and Thomas the Tank Engine to Terry Brooks and JRR Tolkien.
That, combined with a perpetual love of Star Trek (thanks again dad), has led to my joint loves of SciFi and Fantasy.
I only started writing in earnest while I was at university (studying Archaeology), where I wrote a bunch of Star Trek stories (that will never see the light of day).
After realising that a career in archaeology would mean having to go outside, I retrained in IT Support, and moved into writing original fiction.
