Independent author Randy Roeder is a lifelong midwesterner and former academic librarian whose fictional hero, Cletus Efferding, discovers there is more to life in sleepy Cedar Rapids, Iowa, than he ever thought possible.
Like Cletus, Roeder lives in Cedar Rapids, a city he’s called home since 1973. A woodworker and ballroom dancer, Randy spends his time writing, messing up the basement, and exploring the stubborn intricacies of the quickstep. While he longs to upgrade his pedestrian wardrobe, his wife and dachshund prefer he spend the money on them.
Randy Roeder has written a number of articles for the Gristmill: the Journal of the Mid-West Tool Collectors Association and has authored and maintained a web site on antique hand tools for over twenty years. Scarred, tough, and as world weary as his protagonist Cletus Efferding, Roeder continues his quest for truth, honesty, and good writing on the pages of his novel, Sins of Intent.
