overview

Timothy Lee Avers was born on December 18, 1974—a Sagittarius born in the Year of the Tiger which, we’re told, explains a lot. Tim was a quiet but energetic child prone to dramatic outburst that literally did, such as when, while imitating Elvis Presley, Tim’s cardboard-box stage collapsed, or another time, as a couch-cushion helicopter pilot, Tim was shot down by arch nemesis Black Bart.

Tim largely educated himself, to the delight of many teachers and the dismay of all administrators.

Between 1999 and 2001, Tim experienced his most prolific period of published writing, including a number of works that are listed in the credits.

In 2001, Tim married the mother of his two daughters. This relationship, unlike most, blew up in months rather than years.

The year 2002 found Tim single again, a father, a prolific but largely unpublished writer, a philosopher, and a friend.
