Meet TIM TROTT

Tim Trott took to writing at an early age, sending daily reports of a YMCA trip to Mexico to the Orlando Sentinel. He grew up reading the entire Hardy Boys series (the library finally just gave him their entire collection), along with such authors as Robert Heinlein and Isaac Asimov. Later he wrote for radio newscasts and commercials. Fast-forward past careers in broadcasting, security contracting and web design and hosting, he published a few non-fiction titles (a biography of "Sky King", a manual for WordPress, a study guide for drone pilots) but was challenged by the local writers group to try fiction. He has always loved a challenge.

Tim has is own take on science fiction and paranormal, where his short stories are often rooted in real science or theories. Some shorts stories are based on work experience or a focused study on a particular topic.

Tim began writing seriously after an early retirement from a blend of several careers, ranging from broadcasting to security systems and sound system contracting, to website development and hosting. He now lives on the east coast of Florida where he can sit on his front porch overlooking a canal waterfront and watch launches from the Kennedy Space Center over the tree-tops.

He can be found on Facebook groups focused on science fiction or Florida authors. The future holds a continuing series of science fiction short stories as well as more non-fiction works.
