About the Internet Author

Robert P. Fitton

Robert P. Fitton grew up amidst the less complicated life of a small Massachusetts town in the 1950's and 60's. He was raised by his parents with an appreciation of local, family, and American history. His summers were spent in his neighborhood and town, often competing in baseball and other sports, cast within the values of changing small town America. With television's increasing influence, Fitton reveled in the 1960's Star Trek and The Twilight Zone. On cold winter nights he pointed his telescope skyward and dreamed of traveling to the stars or back through time.

Fitton graduated from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst with a degree in American Studies. Within a year of graduation he began writing science fiction novels, fortified by his youthful dreams and influences. He built a career in outside sales, but continued writing in his free time.

With the advent of personal computers, Fitton retired his typewriter and dramatically increased his volume on computer disc. The Fitton Chronicles is the ongoing accumulation of that effort. Fitton compressed his writing time in the pre-dawn hours, adding the mystery, fantasy, thriller, and pop novel genres to his work, while defining his style by attending writing conferences and seminars. He refined his writing technique and studied with science fiction icon, Orson Scott Card, mystery writer, Sally Gunning, and Murder, She Wrote, producer/writer, Tom Sawyer.

In 2001, Fitton became the original Internet Author by building his own web site and selling his books directly to the public. Fitton books have been sold worldwide from China to Venezuela, Sweden to Indonesia.

Not surprisingly, Fitton resides in a New England village. He maintains a jogging schedule, often under the stars by winter, and a warm weather biking routine in summer. His writing continues with a number of series books and new works posted on the Fitton Chronicles.
