Welcome to all those who fell down Thomas Lucas’ rabbit hole.

I’m Robert Raymond, an Orlando writer, and I’ve had two books of historic fiction published. Fire and Bronze is the romantic story of Princess Elisha’s struggle to found Carthage, a tale full of sailing and sex and swords. And Early Retyrement is a time-travel novel with a twist (mainly that my chrononaut doesn’t know the history of when he’s fallen or any technological tricks to assent to heroic greatness). Both are available in my link at the bottom of this page.

I’m also shopping Indigo, a mid-air collision of Jonathan Livingston Seagull and Top Gun. I mean, what could be cooler than an adventure novel based on the lives of crows, those scrabbling, fussy, greedy birds, black as night and self-centered as teenagers? Currently I’m hoping to place this soon with an agency – the search continues.

While I’m not as active as I’d like to be on the local writing scene, I do push out twice-a-week blogs. On Thursdays, I post Dog Ear, a writer’s advice column / bitch session. On Sundays, I post up my book review column (what could illustrate my wide-ranging tastes than a full list HERE?) Both sets can also be accessed on the left margin menu.

There are also games, photos, model train information and all sorts of other things listed down the left column menu. Look around – it’s not a paysite, everything’s free.

And I’m glad you poked in. Hope you come back!
