Author's Bio

Tim Hawkins has lived and traveled widely throughout North America, Southeast Asia, and Latin America, where he has worked as a journalist, technical writer, communications manager and teacher in international schools.

After spending much of the '90's and '00's abroad, he currently lives in his hometown of Grand Rapids, Michigan. His writing has appeared in numerous print and online publications in the past decade. In 2012, he published his first poetry collection, Wanderings at Deadline (Aldrich Press) and was nominated for a Pushcart Prize.
