- The Healing Shard by Tim Kearsley - 2012-09-11 14:01:38-04
My name is Tim Kearsley. I was born in Northamptonshire in England, in February, 1955. The Healing Shard is my first novel and was published in July, 2012. Apart from writing, I love to walk and take in everything Nature has to offer. Someone said that to be interested in less than everything is a betrayal of the soul. Well, I don't know if that's true or not, but there are more things in this Universe to interest me than I can cover in one lifetime. My eyes are often looking to the heavens and the wonders it holds, both by day and especially by night. I also have a keen interest in aviation and can often be found at one of the many airshows. My favourite aircraft? It's a tough choice, but I think the Spitfire has to be the one! I am a member of Mensa. I still live in Northamptonshire and I still find new things every day to astound me.
