Fountain Hills author brings forgotten daredevil back to life
Author Phillip S. Roberts writes evocative literary fiction that explores themes of identity, memory, and human connection through richly drawn characters and immersive settings. His work blends emotional depth with subtle storytelling and invites readers to linger in moments of reflection long after the final page. One of his favorite quotes, from The Luckiest Fool on Earth, perfectly captures his approach to writing and life: “You don’t have to start great, but you DO have to start to be GREAT.”
