Thank you for checking out this book by Theophania Publishing. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you soon. We have thousands of titles available, and we invite you to search for us by name, contact us via our website, or download our most recent catalogues. I'm full of sarcastic witticisms today, most of them heartfelt jargon of a bygone era - call me a romantic. Call me an anachronism. I used to think of myself as a renaissance man, but got muscled out by the guys with better clothes and more money than I have. When asked for my resume, I challenged, "I paint, I write, I bind beautiful books, I am a jeweler, and a sculptor, I have a massive collection of rare and antique books (that I read), and enjoy sharing what I have learned with others. I study and practice philosophy and magic. I enjoy great wines and can understand the subtleties in a single malt scotch. I tend to be literary in that way - always seeking the right words for the wrong circumstances. I've overcome many of my addictions, and have drowned in the sea of vice. I have been learning to conquer myself, and fear mainly that the art of subtlety may be lost amongst the masses. I enjoy the study of humanity without taking part in it. I am a god amongst mortals, and a mortal amongst gods." They rejected my application on the grounds of my immorality.

Robert L. Angus (November 20, 1975) was born to Barry and Linda Angus in Flin Flon, Manitoba, Canada. Named Michael Patrick Robert Leigh Angus, the first two names were dropped when his grandmother exclaimed, "That's such a big name for such a small boy!" Mack Paddy lives on as a pseudonym for Robert's darker work. Robert spent most of his childhood being passed around from one family member to another, and his youth spent wandering. His early adult life was spent in Brandon, Manitoba, and he finally moved to Calgary, Alberta in 1995. He held many different jobs, from a 1-900 psychic line operator to a management retail position, factory jobs, and even picking garbage on the highway, Robert eventually enrolled in college in 2002, and after completing his high school upgrading, transferred to Mount Royal College and studied in the Small Business and Entrepreneurship Degree Program. During his college career, Robert established a series of publishing houses and a custom book bindery called Octavia & Co. Press (which eventually became Theophania Publishing and Octavia Book Bindery). Robert lives in Calgary, has three children, and a small contingent of ex-wives. He studies the esoteric, religion, literature, and music. He may be found at his book bindery crafting books, or writing children's books (under his own name) or crime fiction (under the name Mack Paddy).
