A storyteller and dog trainer whose life is shaped by vivid dreams, imagination, and a love for animals.
Bert has been writing stories since he was twelve, often inspired by the vivid dreams he jotted down before they slipped away. Even as a kid, he experimented with voices, sketches, and taped stories to bring his ideas to life. Today, he continues to write across genres, fantasy, mystery, and children’s books, driven by the same love of storytelling he’s carried from the start.
Detective Thomas Blade steps into cases where evidence vanishes, danger escalates, and the line between reality and the unexplainable blurs. From cold-blooded killers to forces not of this world, each investigation pulls him deeper into Chicago’s darkest shadows. This gripping series blends crime, mystery, and the unexpected—keeping readers on edge with every twist.



"OMG I couldnt put Dream Walker down! Detective Blade is sooo smart, and the twists just kept coming. Totally recommend if you like thrillers with a bit of crazy stuff going on."

"By the Grace of God is a lil scary for me lol but i couldnt stop reading. The mix of ghosts or whatever and detective work is kinda brilliant. Blade is my new fave detective."
"Sam R. Squirrel is super fun. My lil cousin loved it too. The school for mystical arts is so cool and the adventure parts had me laughing sometimes. Cant wait to read more."
"The First Easter Egg is sooo cute! My niece loved it. Easy to follow, teaches good lessons, and the bunnies are adorable. Felt nice to read a wholesome story again."
"Bert’s books are really something else. From scary supernatural stuff to fun kids books. Dream Walker & Convicted Without Cause kept me up late for sure. This guy can write."
