Bio
After spending most of his life putting it off, Bristol based author Tim Maughan finally started writing science fiction back in the heady days of 2008. In 2011 he self-published the critically acclaimed Paintwork, a collection of three short stories dealing with the roles of art, celebrity and globalisation in a very near, and strangely familiar, future. His most recent story, Limited Edition (published in News Scientist's Arc magazine) has been shortlisted for the British Science Fiction Association 2012 short fiction award.
Away from fiction he is one of the UK’s best known writers on Japanese animation and comics, a resident blogger for Tor.com, and a freelance contributor to magazines such as Icon and SFX.
