Thomas Timmins

Thomas Timmins has published and performed his fiction and poetry in person and in print across the U.S. and on the internet. He founded Fractals, a literary tabloid and ran Poets and Players, a spoken word and music performance series. Having had more jobs than most itinerant workers, he turned the experiences into fodder for his literary work and confidence to found create and manage his own projects, for a living and for community service. Thomas developed and taught writing and coaching programs for inmates, published commercial writing, founded, managed, and advised several small businesses ranging from soyfoods to ice cream to telephone fundraising to biological pest control to a video game start-up to energy efficiency retrofits and a media company. (Some might think all of these projects reveal an innate instability, though Thomas believes it's more about the Crooked Path he and everyone meander.) Blood Medicine, The Special Fruit Company, and Down at the River comprise the three-book series of The Hour between One and Two. Zoëtown Media will soon make available several other of his works ranging from a picaresque thriller, a graphic novel, a novella and stories, poetry, and 5 Gifts of Bright Presence, true accounts of life-changing encounters with an uncaused force in the natural world.
