About Robert Dittrich
I write mostly contemporary fantasy, suspense, and science fiction for adult and young adult (YA) readers, with an occasional side trip to children's books, essays, and other genre fiction. I have taught young people for many years, and I have been part of the neurodiverse (AKA neurodivergent or neuroatypical) population for all of my life, so my characters often reflect those experiences and struggles.
