My name is Tim Smith, and I’m a writer of 40 years standing. I am now based in York, UK.
I began my professional writing career at Future Publishing Ltd in Bath, UK writing for a variety of magazines.
I left Future as an editor, and moved on to the role of non-fiction editor up in London.
After that a move to Australia where I was a managing and launch editor for magazines.
I then became a TV captioner, then technical manager during the analog-to-digital change-over.
Returning from Australia following the death of my daughter I edited websites and became part of the University of Leeds digital accessibility team. I was responsible for providing written and face-to-face training for senior staff.
I have published one novel. It’s about the need for strangers, the kindness of strangers. It’s published by Amazon. However, I am thinking of making it available here instead.
I have also published a podcast ‘Don’t Do Things the Way I Did’. These are interviews with successful people (such as comedian Al Murray) about how they got to where they are.
My own podcasts aside I have also edited and produced those professionally.
