Robert McCartney

Robert J. McCartney is the author of This is Bob, the Willborne Saga (Requiem for Lilith, Lilah’s Guide to Hoyle), and other interconnected works that explore identity, fate, and the human condition—often through surreal dream logic, dark humor, and emotional grit.

After a life-changing car accident in 2008, Robert began channeling recurring dreams and personal struggles into storytelling. His work blends mental health themes with speculative fiction, using characters like Bob, Dana, Lilah, and Walter to navigate trauma, autonomy, and transformation.

He lives in Tennessee with his wife, two children, and a backlog of video games. When not writing under his indie label, A.B.Normal Publishing and Media Group, you’ll likely find him logged into World of Warcraft or outlining the next existential spiral.
