As a writer, I want my readers to have access to personal transformation through my characters and through the situations I create. Writing is my opportunity to demonstrate pathways for characters and readers to find their way. Stories transport and transform. Please explore my writing portfolio.

Robyne Stevenson is an intrepid explorer who travels the US in an Airstream, finding inspiration in every corner of the country. After a successful career as a professor of Political Science, she has turned her focus to historical political fiction featuring strong, resilient women. Her nomadic life is the perfect vehicle to craft stories of inspiration with a romantic twist.

Check out @RobyneOnTheRoad on Instagram to follow her adventures.

I knew her as a child and visited her there in her real-life Wynnewood apartment on the Philadelphia Main Line. She actually was a legal secretary and spent time in some of the social circles mentioned in the book. My great-grandmother Hannah was a feisty red-headed Irish woman who migrated here with her husband John. He was not a seafarer. Ruth had brothers and sisters and the character of Maurine is actually my grandmother Florence. My grandfather was Frank Stevenson. I lived near Philadelphia for a time and used Census records to go visit the addresses where they lived as young women near the Penn campus and Clark Park. The picture on the book cover is Ruth and Florence (Maurine) standing in that neighborhood. Don't they look like suffragists? (less)
