Understanding and navigating loss, relationships, and a world of constant change.

About RGKBooks

Stories and Guides for a Changing World

At RGKBooks, we write for people navigating change—whether that’s the loss of a loved one, the climate crisis, shifts in how we educate our children, or the evolution of relationships in uncertain times. Our books are personal, practical, and always grounded in lived experience.

We believe stories have power—not just to comfort, but to inform, connect, and inspire action.

Richard Knight

Author of the Widower Series & Climate Conversations

Richard writes from the heart of real experience. Following the loss of his wife to cancer, he began the Widower series to support others going through the raw, complex journey of grief, caregiving, and rebuilding. His upcoming climate-focused books explore how families—especially children—can make sense of a world in flux, equipping them with understanding and hope.
