Born in India, of medical missionary parents, Tim knew from the time he could talk that what he was going to do was to be a physician. But that knowledge did not impede his other interests, which include (but are not limited to) reading, writing, photography, painting and music.
His first venture into the world of writing fiction began in 1989, at which time he wrote what became his first novel. However, it did not get published until he completed the trilogy, long after the beginning of this writing effort. Now, we have The Book of Drachma, Part One - Laminar Flow, with Part Two - Coaptation, and Part Three - Turbulence and Restoration. All three are now available in hardcover, paperback, as e-books, and audiobooks.
I'm often asked, "what is your novel about?" A simple question, but not an easy answer. It's about medicine, surely, but it's about so much more - it is a novel about the lives of people changed by the winds of time - it is a novel of medicine, murder, magic. It is also about friendship, faith and fealty. Enjoy!
