Robert is presently constructing a creative, non-fictional representation (formerly known as an autobiography), beginning with those events immediately prior to his act of war resistance, in 1969: immigrating to Canada, then witnessing his university degrees, log-cabin, three marriages and as many children disappear along the way (leaving a galaxy of black holes and shooting-stars called poesm...)

Robert lives with his wife Darlene Shatford, and his young sons, Ryan and Brett, in Prince George. He has been working as a therapist, both at the Nechako Residential Treatment Centre and in private practice, for the past ten years.
