Rob Canning-Rogers

I grew up and lived most of my life in sunny South Africa which is so silly that it has provided me with ample writing material on the follies of the human race. I steer toward middle school and young adult fictional fantasy (but not to worry, I have plenty of adult content as well) based on the animals in my care and it is their idiocy that is mirrored in our fractional society. But my characters always save the day in the end through a range of crazy adventures.
I live with my wife and a collection of other animals in a small village called Suurbraak (if you dont know how to pronounce it dont stress, neither can I). We have a sanctuary of cats, dogs, horses and of course goats, all of whom add richness to my books with their characters.
I love the works of Asterix, Tintin, The Chronicles of Narnia, Tolkien, Beatrix Potter, Gerald Durrell, James Herriot and Terry Prachett and although I am not in the same league as these esteemed authors their voices are forever ringing in my writing mind.
