Tim is a child of the 60s with a terminal case of reading, writing and daydreaming. In college he realized that, essentially, he knew nothing and chose instead an education in the school of life. Throughout a meandering and eventful career path he amassed a modest vault of notions, plots and poems. Crusoe and the Stone Gardener, his first published work, was made possible with assistance from the Nova Scotia Talent Trust. Tim lives with his wife, Bonnie, a well known illustrator and their brilliant dog, Kayah, in the Annapolis Valley.
