It’s something I’ve always loved to do.”The sequel, Minjy the Robot Returns, followed shortly afterwards. Steven’s third e-book, Minjy the Robot – A Pirate’s Life, was released in August 2016. In May 2017, Steven released, Minjy the Robot in Glitter City, which is the fourth e-book in the series.“When I began to write the Minjy the Robot series, it started out as fantasy for children. It developed into fiction for middle grade and young adult readers, dealing with morals and human nature.“It’s very exciting to release my fifth e-book, Minjy the Robot and the Search for Wing Wong. As always, this story is a completely new adventure for Minjy and readers alike. I hope you’ve enjoyed.”Steven’s favorite fiction is the 1939 fantasy / adventure movie, The Wizard of Oz.“I’m very fond of this story. I think it’s absolutely brilliant. It claims to be for the young and ‘the young at heart’ – very true. Stories that can touch the hearts of both kids and adults really appeal to me. I try to aspire to this kind of writing.”It has now been several years since Steven wrote his first e-book and he reflects on how his character has evolved.“One of the many enjoyable aspects of writing the Minjy the Robot series of e-books is to see how Minjy has changed – for the better of course! Her behavior and appearance has evolved from story to story. The creativity in developing Minjy’s changing demeanor and the way she looks have been a fun experience.”For this Canadian author, life lessons are commonly full of twists and turns, and are really great teachers.“I’ve learned that at times, some things have a funny way of turning out. To have faith and hope that things will work out for the best is a motivating concept for me. I’ve also learned from the experience the importance of kindness and compassion. I try to incorporate all of these thoughts and feelings into the stories that I write.”Steven is from Ontario, Canada.view less
