Memories, Musings and Mayhem of a Creative Career
Welcome to RobertArtWriter.com
At a slower pace than I would like, I have been documenting my career in art and writing here. Currently, I’m well into my time at Filmation Studios in the 1980s. It will take a while to complete that phase since I am determined to keep a chronological order to my pages. I did make one exception with my BraveStarr page, but that is a morsel of material. Someday I will expand it with more stuff. Eventually I will catch up to where I am now—but don’t hold your breath.
There is a lot to tell.

A series of Young Adult epic fantasy novels by Shawn Lamb, my wonderfully creative wife! Books 1-6 are available through bookstores and online retailers in both paperbacks and eBooks. Book 7 - Dangerous Deception will be published Spring 2013.
Shawn’s newest book - published August 2012.
I have been interviewed by Chris Vint at the Masters of the Universe Chronicles for his December 2009 bonus podcast. Chris is in Northern Ireland and sounds much like Billy Boyd (Pippin in LOTR) to my ears. He is a gracious host and we chatted for about an half hour. My interview comes in at about 11 minutes, after a segment on MOTU collectible toys.
This caricature of me was created by Pedro Figue for the cover of cereal: geek #3, a magazine devoted to animation of the 1980s (shameless plug – I am a contributor to the magazine). You can find me stuck between two turtles in the second row. This magazine is a labor of love published by James Eatock in London, UK. There are no ads, just 100 pages of Eighties animation goodness.
