Robin started writing with a fully illustrated manuscript 'Chickens and their Diseases' when in second grade in Nigeria. Some years later she and her family were evacuated as the Nigerian Civil War began in 1967. It is from her memories of Nigeria that her novel Night Must Wait, released in 2012 by Imajin Books, evolved. Her first science fiction novel, Future Past was released May first, 2013 from Eternal Press. Next, in late April 2015 her thriller/science fiction novel Watch the Shadows will be published by White Whisker Press. Think of a strong smart young woman in Southern California planning to become a scientist, who is faced by the odd gradual disappearance of the local homeless, and a sequence of strange events concerning ducks—which mount to a personally threatening point. Call it science fiction with aliens for garnish. Robin Winter has published science fiction and horror stories, won awards for writing, and in 2011 had a collection of her short stories performed in Los Angeles' New Short Fiction Series. As a child Robin lived in a number of places beginning with 'N'; Nebraska, Nigeria, New Hampshire and New York. Now living in California, she has no intention of going back to any of the preceding. Her other career centers on oil painting, both landscape and figure. Her husband, a paleocarpologist, corrects the science in both her paintings and her writings, and has acquired considerable skill in ducking flying objects. They have a teenage daughter who also loves to write, and three cats who don't.
