Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Robert Liebertz was born in Portland Oregon; but grew up in the suburb of Gresham. He worked a number of different jobs including construction work, waiter, vacuum salesman, and building fences. He found his calling at a 911 center answering calls and dispatching police. Robert worked as a 911 Dispatcher for the City of Portland Oregon for over 30 years: retiring in March of 2021.

He has been married to his wife Margaret since 1992. They have two children, Lucas and Emma. They also have two Siberian huskies, Nova and Ella.

Robert has been attending pirate festivals for decades. At one particular event, a friend encouraged him to invent his own name, character, and backstory. Robert started writing, and that backstory became the groundwork for his first book. He started writing “Gerard’s Fortune” in October 2020, and finished in January of 2021.

He spent months looking for a publisher during the covid lockdown. Frustrated with the process, Robert decided to self-publish with Amazon. His first book, Gerard's Fortune, was published July 28th, 2021. He now has five books published in the Sharp Tales series. His website, YouTube, and Facebook pages can all be found under the tag "sevenminutesofpiracy".

    What a terrific book! I'll admit to having some doubts about reading a seagoing adventure. I figured it would get bogged down in ship details, boring days on the high seas, etc. So happy to have thoroughly enjoyed this adventure from cover to cover! Such a wealth of characters, each with fascinating back stories who come together (or collide!) for a delightful read that's tough to put down. Highly recommend!

Makes you want to tag along with him as he tackles these adventures. The author has created a delightful book. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.

    Like the Story Line; varied style of writing, a work in progress. Was impressed with the lessons in leadership. Just purchased the follow on book, looking for more of Gerards Travels and Adventures... Think he should evolve as a True Pirate on the High Seas of Adventure... Look for more from this Author in the future.

    One Saturday my husband and I were bored and two blocks away at an abandoned K-Mart they were having a craft bazaar with local artisans selling all kinds of handmade goods.

    My ex boss had a booth selling jewelry and I hadn’t seen her in years so we walked over. As we were looking for her I passed a booth with an array of hard bound books by a local author. I’m an avid reader and while these were not anything I would normally read I struck up a conversation and learned he was fairly new but a longtime Gresham resident.

    We went in search of my friend but came back by on our way out. He gave me a bookmark with his information and I came home and checked him out on Amazon. I decided to buy his first book and see how I liked it. I loved it and purchased the rest.

    Koo koo kashaw Robert Liebertz! You have a new fan. Wishing you great success!
