Welcome to Robin Blake's Website
Welcome to anyone who wants to know about me, and my work as a writer.
You will find here information about myself
,
details of my books about Coroner Cragg and Dr Fidelis – with some unpublished background – and my other published books, both fiction and non-fiction.
I also write about visual art and, from time to time, about other things, and I will upload extracts from or links to some of this work.
In the jottings section I will add news. I may also drop in some remarks about what I've been reading, or what people are talking about.
