Ross is an engineer and married father of 3 children. His main qualification in writing this book is that he suffered with depression and then he cured it, almost accidentally. Ross is not an author and after accidentally becoming one, he is quite unsure as to whether to make the same mistake twice.

Ross spent 25 years with his girlfriend, Monica, the co-author of this book. He also had three children with her before deciding to ditch the bachelor life. He then married Monica and has decided that he’s only going to give it another 50 years or so, otherwise he’s getting out.
