A Writer’s Creative Response to God’s Call to Faith

Inspired fiction writer, Robert W. Ross, comes into The Family Room with his wife, Rachel, and his daughter, Autumn, both of whom support his writing in unique ways. Robert left behind a lucrative career in information technology to answer God’s call to write. His family forms a creative team with him to bring these marvelous books into being. Fans around the world receive connection and inspiration. As a Catholic, Robert does not write “Catholic fiction.” At the same time, Robert’s vocation to writing comes from God, and the stories will take you out of this world! Creating authentic characters that appeal to fans of many walks of life is part of Robert’s vocation as a writer. Robert’s “yes” to God is bearing fruit that will last.
