Robin graduated from BYU with a major in Psychology and a minor in Russian. But learning seems to be an addiction, and she returned to college "for the fun of it," taking classes in photography and writing.

She describes it as a cross between The Lord of the Rings and Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time for teens.
