Robert Paul Weston lives inLondon, England, in a crumbling old building, hidden behind shiny glass towers. He isn't sure if this is where the idea for DENKi-3000 Headquarters came from, but it's certainly possible. In 2008, he published his first novel-in-verse, Zorgamazoo, recipient of the California Young Reader s Medal, the Silver Birch Award, the Children s Choice Award, and an E.B. White Read Aloud Honor. His second novel was the hardboiled fairy tale, DustCity, which was nominated for the Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Young Adult Mystery. In February 2013, he publishedPrince Puggly of Spud and the Kingdom of Spiff. Although he writes all of his books with a mechanical pencil, it's not electric and doesn't come with a telescopic lens.
