Robert has been a professional writer for 30 years, writing as William Stanek and Robert Stanek. Read Robert's books and collect his art because he is genuine, the real deal. Someone who has given his heart and soul to his passion for words and art. Someone who has earned his place in the literary and art worlds by rolling up his sleeves and doing great work consistently for thirty years. It should be abundantly clear from his hundreds of written works and thousands of works of art/photography that Robert spends his time, energy and resources creating, rather than playing the review game. "One of our most respected authors," says The Audio bookstore. "Breathtaking stories, vivid characters and beautifully crafted worlds." Robert Stanek is a pen name of William R. Stanek, whose more than 200 books of both fiction and nonfiction have been translated into 57 languages, sold nearly 20 million copies worldwide and been published and/or distributed by nearly every major US publisher over the past 30 years. Robert's forefather, the Pulitzer prize-winning author and National Book Award recipient, Wallace Stegner, who is thought of as the Dean of Western Writers, once called Robert one of the most versatile and naturally talented writers he'd ever met, the future Dean of Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers, and that future is now. Like his forefather, Robert is an American novelist, short story writer, historian, conservationist and memoirist. Like his forefather, Robert is a gifted and distinguished writer, a respected and skilled teacher and someone who operates against the grain. Robert became the first breakout author of the digital publishing movement. The first to serialize an ebook, the first to e-author a bestseller, and the first to e-author a digital audio bestseller. Robert is the recipient of multiple awards recognizing his outstanding contributions and excellence in writing, and a recent nominee for a Lifetime Achievement award. Today, writing as William Stanek and Robert Stanek, he has over 50 #1 bestsellers to his credit and his books have been translated into 57 languages and counting. As a partially disabled veteran and father of a child with disabilities, Robert is a strong supporter of related causes and charities.
