After her long flight, does she have the strength to make it home? "What makes a short story good? Study this book to find out! Captivating descriptives, filled with grit & merit, this book is unputdownable!"- Jennie Louwes , Reedsy Discovery "Maddox is at his best when he limns the hazy line between acts of bravery and acts of desperation. However, the story, at less than 60 pages, is as vague as it is brief," - Kirkus Reviews Tim Maddox is an engineer that has always loved the escape of a good story, whether that's from a western, high-fantasy, mystery, or just a good biography or historical piece. There is a seemingly perpetual need for more shelf space for new books. With that passion has come a fondness for creating his own personal stories. As time wears on, more of these have found themselves on various pages of paper or word documents. His first story to be published was Forest Flight  in September of 2020.Outside of his job in engineering, Tim enjoys going to trivia nights, taking long drives to just think, playing/streaming video games, exploring in the Pacific Northwest, and traveling to new places.He lives in Hood River, Oregon.
