About Bob

Once there was an eleven-year-old boy who wrote stories about children on flying bicycles a decade before Steven Spielberg read the script for E.T. A career as teacher and church minister followed, leading him down a path of writing childrens’ books, educational articles and theological materials. All this he enjoyed…but something was missing and so in 2011 he decided to develop his writing skills with a view to becoming a full-time writer. Early success with playwriting advanced into writing supernatural and science-fiction screenplays as well as other ideas, a few of which can be found on here. Enjoy browsing the site and if you’re a producer, director or filmmaker and would like more information, please check me out on here.
