New story, old soul . . . Clown William rides again in the Wild West
SAN ANTONIO - Californer -- Author Robin Elno takes us on a wild ride through the Wild West in the 1870s as reluctant gunslinger William battles inner and outer demons in Clown William and the Wind of Vengeance.
"Sometimes our greatest strengths can come from what we view as our greatest weakness," says author Robin Elno. Elno says this idea was a huge inspiration for him when he was writing the Clown William series, which is about a young man, William, who suffers from a physical ailment we now know as Tourette Syndrome. After being kicked out of the house by his father in the first book of the series, a self-defense situation teaches him that he has astounding accuracy with a six-gun.
There's something inherently classic about a story set in the Wild West. But the unique twist William brings as an unlikely hero is what sets the series apart.
The first book, Clown William, was the Silver Winner of the 2018 Independent Publisher Book Awards (IPPYs) and Finalist in the 2019 Next Generation Indie Book Awards and the 13th Annual National Indie Excellence Awards. Robin's follow up, Clown William and the Lincoln County War was the winner of the 13th Annual National Indie Excellence Awards for Western Fiction, and both books won the Bronze Medal in the 2019 IPPYs for Best Fiction Series.
