Person
Hope Robinson has always been passionate about writing, but for many years, his busy life - filled with demanding careers for both himself and his wife, as well as the joys and responsibilities of raising a daughter and a son - meant his writing efforts were sporadic and often left him feeling unsatisfied. During the second COVID-19 lockdown and winter weather, he decided then was the time to sit down and see if he could write to his satisfaction. He hopes others will find as much joy in reading them as he did in crafting them.
