R. C. Tomlinson is a retired mental health professional, a father of three adult children, a grandfather of 12 grand kids, a thanatologist, end-of-life coach, a California-certified family & divorce mediator, and premarital mentor. He even worked within the funeral industry as a sales counselor and grief counselor for a period of time as well.

Today, he spends much of his retirement years authoring food-for-thought & self-help books in order to pay-forward what he’s learned over the span of 68 years in order to inform and enlighten his readers...hoping to make a difference in other people’s lives on one level or another.

When he’s not authoring books, he enjoys mini-vacations to Las Vegas, Maui, and visiting his children in Kansas, Indiana and Florida, as well as experimenting in the kitchen, creating decadent desserts. Though he claims to eat pretty healthy overall, he admits to his weakness for Weinerschnitzel hot dogs and Wendy’s hamburgers once a month or so.
