Autorenporträt
When he was little, Bob Bickford haunted the library. He hunted for good stories, became lost in pages, and daydreamed about becoming a writer. When he was older, real life got in the way and paychecks became more urgent than classes or degrees. The dream was filed under 'impossible things', and nearly forgotten. After years spent in various corners of the United States and Canada, he dusted off his imagination and became a writer-by-night. He hunts for good stories once again, and he still haunts the library.
