Timothy Hicks Biography

My name is Timothy Hicks, and I've been writing for 5 years now, since I was 13. My main hobbies include writing, playing my piano, origami and bicycling.


I'm a bit OCD about some things and some would refer to me as a nervous pacer. I like to do outdoor activities, but at the same enjoy my alone time where I can sit and write. I'm a very avid reader and enjoy several different genres: horror, science-fiction, fantasy, and mysteries such as Sherlock Holmes.


I've had several different jobs including shakerboarder, pizza-make and cotton candy maker-and-distributor.


I like to think of myself as someone that can fit into almost any crowd and I always try to stay on the bright side of things. I swear very little and hardly ever get mad at people. I believe spreading smiles is a much better practice than sharing negativity...

I can't recall if you did it as premiere contest or not. If so, ugggg. have fun with THAT!!! It's hard enough doing a REGULAR contest when many of the entries are good ones!!

Some contests turn out to be SO difficult to judge. It's too bad you can't decide to go Premiere after the fact. haha!!

Very true, Andrea. This is a standard contest ... I was thinking of doing premiere, but I like highlighting a few more poems than just 10 (15) ... While at the same time not make it too easy ... It's tricky partially because there was hardly any rules to this contest ... I left it too people's imaginations ...
