Hey, I’m Robison Wells.
NY Times Bestselling Novelist, Artist, Game Designer and Blogger
Who is Robison Wells?
Doer of Things
I published my first book in 2003, and have since gone on to publish, or contribute to, 14 more. I’ve won a bunch of awards and maybe you’ve read some of my stuff.
I’m also an artist—oil, pencil, and ink primarily. My biggest claim to fame there was that I once won 4th Place in the Utah State Fair. So, I’m a pretty big deal.
And I ran a website about miniature wargames, a love of mine since I was 9 years old, and in 2023 I published my first wargame.
Mental Health Advocate
I have an anxiety disorder, depression, and big granddaddy of them all: schizophrenia. I work and write for the benefit of the mental health community.

FAQ
-
I haven't published anything since 2019, and I've kinda been enjoying the break. I refer to it as semi-retirement. But don't worry--I still have stories in me. I'm working on something new right now. Who knows when or if it will be published, but I'm enjoying it.
-
There are currently no plans for a book three in the Variant series. But never say never.

Maybe? But probably not. I have a bad habit of monetizing my hobbies and rendering them unrelaxing. I've done a lot of commissions in the past, and even played around with sell prints, but it's just a lot of work and stress that I don't want.
