Robert Boyczuk (that's me!) lives in Toronto. In former lives I was a technical writer for IBM and then a Professor at Seneca College of Applied Arts and Technology, where I taught programming, IT security and the occasional English course. I've attended far too many workshops and courses in creative writing, including the Humber School for Writers, Second City workshops in script writing, and the Clarion West Workshop. Over the years, I've published six books and several short stories in various print and online magazines and anthologies. Often, I'm irritable for no apparent reason. "Robert Boyczuk is a supremely talented short-story writer." –Cory Doctorow on BoingBoing "Boyczuk's memorable debut offers 19 horror stories that accentuate the emotional-and often horrid - upheavals men and women suffer from while searching for love....Boyczuk's stories are uniformly excellent...." -Publisher's Weekly "[Boyczuk] has a real knack for creepy... (His) stories all have a twist—a turn of the screw—that breathes new life into some of the old forms and results in fiction as clever as it is entertaining.” -Alex Good, Quill and Quire “Certain to outrage snowboarders and pro-lifers of all stripes. Infantovores, however, will find a powerful and articulate advocate in Robert Boyczuk.” —Peter Watts, author of the Rifters Trilogy and Blindsight. "Well-punctuated with dramatic set pieces and thrills that are often sharp and bloody, the whole thing culminates in a spectacularly messy, and thoroughly satisfying, finale....this is an ambitious novel that delivers on all its promises." —Alex Good, GoodReports.net "The stuff of an epic nihilistic hangover." -Publisher's Weekly “The Book of David is an odyssey through realms of science fiction, fantasy, and sheer mind-bending madness. Robert Boyczuk has crafted an epic. Creation mythology and dystopian fiction might not ever be the same after this collision.” Laird Barron, author of Occultation and The Imago Sequence
