SIA Showcase for Readers and Writers discussion

My name is Brad Robertson. It's a pleasure to meet you.

I'm a new author who spent years in workshops but only just now got around to releasing anything. I have a decent range as a writer, but usually stick to poetry, fantasy, and horror. It really just depends on my mood at the time. My first two releases are available now on Amazon. Both are free for Kindle Unlimited users.

Fifty Poems and the Kitchen Sink


This collection has a running theme of telling the reader not to give up in the face of defeat, in various ways, but it's focused around simply being a fun read. Topics range anywhere from happy-go-lucky frogs, to territorial dragons, to mountaintops. You'll never be stuck in one place for long.

The Art of Heartbreak: Poems for a horrible day


This smaller collection is full of all the poems that were too dark and depressing for the larger one. It'll break your heart open for you, so be sure to check it out.

I'm also working on a fantasy novel about a crass, aging hunter who investigates mysterious creatures with the help of a cynical, jaded apprentice (WIP title is "The Cryptid Slayer").

Have a lovely day.

Hi Brad,

I took a look at your book, and I loved Picnic in the Rain :)

Thanks Linda! I enjoyed writing that one.

I finished my second work, The Art of Heartbreak: Poems for a horrible day, so it's been added to the OP.
