SCOTTY ROBERTS' RESUME

Designer, Illustrator and writer of ficti on & non-fiction, occupationally hovering in the advertising ghettos of Minneapolis & Saint Paul, Minnesota.

I can be more or less defined by my roles as Dad and Husband; once a single parent of my three exuberant children, who live with me in my home, I am now very happily married to my amazing wife, Raini! All of these ingredients combined, make my life a paradoxical roller coaster of hellacious joy and insightful befuddlement, and were it not for my buoyant, easy going nature, and the stable, common sense, uplifting energy of my wife, I would most assuredly have lost my sanity a long time ago.

My Family - Sam, Flynn, Raini and Scotty

My twin daughters, Abby & Bryn
- all growed-up and out of the house!

I value a good pipe, a stout pint, and consider myself a purist when it comes to single malt highland Scotch - which for me is not a tool of inebriation, but rather an enlightened repast to be shared with colleagues and like-minded pedagogues of philosophy and hob-knobbing banter.

I am a contemplative, spiritual man of consideration who values intelligence, wit, justice and touch. I do not shy away from a good fight, and have had a few brawls in my day - whether on my behalf or in defense of another - and, were times different, would most probably be known wide and abroad as an expert swordsman. However, in keeping with my paradoxical nature, I prefer employing words over weapons, wit above profanity, spirituality above religion, stalwartness above inconstancy. And as I grow older, my burgeoning jaded cynicism is wholly tempered by my desire to not become an ass. My humor is wry, my mind is fertile, and my love is deep.

My wife Raini and my son Flynn
