Bob Strother spent thirty years penning technical reports, issue papers and a mélange of work-related documents before discovering his love for creative writing. Then, in 2004, during the return leg of a road trip to Flagstaff, his wife suggested he should preserve his oft-told tales of a delightfully wacky southern family and misspent youth. He joined the Greenville Chapter of the South Carolina Writers Workshop and has been consumed with his new passion ever since.
Bob has completed four novels. Love Among the Greeks was released in April, 2006 by Publish America. His other three works, Shug's Place, Burning Time, and Forgive Us Our Sins are as yet unpublished.
His short stories have been published in over a dozen literary journals and magazines. His non-fiction work has been included in various professional trade journals and other nationally-published periodicals.
In 2005, Bob was elected to the board of directors of the South Carolina Writers Workshop, and currently serves as Chapter Liaison. He and his wife, Vicki, live in Greenville, South Carolina, and dote on grandsons, Brody and Owen.
