Rod left home at sixteen and spent five years in the British Merchant
Navy. Since moving to BC in 1968, he worked as a mate on tugboats, a boat
builder, businessman, psychotherapist, and executive director of mental
health organizations.
Since moving to beautiful Lions Bay, he was inspired to become an author
and has written three books –
“Constant Traveller R801168.” 2015
“I Need my Yacht by Friday — True Tales from the Boat Repair Yard.” 2016
“Um, Where is Belize?” 2017
and "The Shilling Thieves - True Tales of an English Childhood."
All titles are available on Amazon.
For Lions bay residents, Rod would be happy to sign and personally deliver his books.
However, I've written two more books since then:
"Unexpected Treasures - Running a Mental Health Nonprofit." About my time
as executive director of the New West/Maple Ridge branch of the Canadian
Mental Health Association. (shortlisted by the Whistler Independent Book
Awards)
