About the Author

Timothy Hurley is a writer, retired physician, and family man with four children and six grandchildren.  Coast-hopping between New York City and San Francisco Bay Area, he writes literary, speculative and humor fiction.  His heroes, M. Twain, E.A. Poe, and E. Hemingway, among others, are not returning his emails.  His works-in-progress include collections of New York and Mars short stories, The Grumpy Old Men’s Club, and a memoir of his medical career.  When not writing, he reads, and often walks the neighborhoods of New York searching for the perfect pizza.  Timothy and his wife, the architectural historian and author, live in Brooklyn.  They will celebrate their forty-fourth anniversary the day the Mayans bring the world to an end, but they’re not afraid.  Timothy blogs occasionally at The Lunatic Assylum, his name for Earth, and tweets at @timothyhurley3.  Email Timothy at thelunaticassylum@gmail.com.
