About the author
After a diverse and fulfilling career as an academic, civil servant, and international management consultant, retirement allowed Robert Ferguson to rediscover his early passion for imaginative writing, a pursuit he had loved since childhood.
Finding himself in the West Midlands of England, he discovered a rich and dynamic literary culture that inspired him to immerse himself in writing and publishing. His work spans short stories, poetry, reviews, and a novel, each reflecting his sharp insights and storytelling skill. Over time, his efforts earned recognition, with his pieces frequently published and occasionally winning awards for their originality and depth.
For Robert, retirement has become a deeply rewarding chapter, where the joy of storytelling shapes his days. A lifetime traveller, Robert draws on rich memories of places, people and animals - especially cats! - to reflect the world for which he retains a deep and passionate love.
