Bio Robert Standish Robert Standish is an aspiring writer and devoted father of three. After several years in the film and television industry in Canada, he has had the chance to meet some amazing people, travel, and experience things, not for normal consumption. As a camera assistant and operator he has been in the line of fire on many occasions and inside explosions and crashes, just to name a few incredible opportunities. “Chalk Outline These Thoughts, 1 and 2, and a fiction novel, “The Secrets Men Keep”, most recently the creator of a collection of poetry entitled “The Passion Hidden Within” (Amazon and Kindle) My writing roots The inner voice.

I learned it young and forgot. My style The artistic chameleon, my style transforms into the subject matter, although the roots are based on a strategic plan of chaotic approach. I have to have a complete thought and suffer in silence until all the pieces are in place. I will build the complete concept before I break ground. Lego thinking is the key.
