Rob Rogers

Rob Rogers is an attorney and author from Orlando, Florida. He has been writing analytical, critical, and creative nonfiction since before college. His first notable publication was an article about unintended consequences of water diversion structures on the Mississippi River in the Virginia Environmental Law Journal, which was published during his third year of law school. At that time, he also served as an Articles Editor for the Florida State University Law Review.

During his 20 years practicing law, Rob has published articles analyzing cases for legal websites and publications, including Law 360 and Communications Lawyer. Rob rediscovered his passion for creative writing in 2024 after experiencing mental health problems and coping with them by hiking and backpacking. After writing an article about his backpacking experiences, he was inspired and encouraged by other authors to turn that article into his first book, Finding My Way Home: Fighting Depression Backpacking in Central Florida.

Rob has continued to write articles about hiking, backpacking, travel, and coping with depression when not practicing law. A common theme of Rob's creative writing is immersing the reader in his adventures by describing the full sensory experience of the places he visits and the challenges he faces there.
