  <about><![CDATA[I'm an author of literary fiction, speculative fiction (science fiction and fantasy) and poetry. I was born in Grimsby, Lincolnshire, England. My family emigrated to New Zealand when I was two years old. I grew up in Southland, lived for 17 years in Dunedin, and now live in Wellington, New Zealand. Currently, I write part-time and work part-time as the marketing manager for a web company. My recent books are:

- &lt;a href=&quot;http://timjonesbooks.blogspot.com/2009/05/voyagers-contents.html&quot;&gt;Voyagers: Science Fiction Poetry from New Zealand&lt;/a&gt;, co-edited with Mark Pirie, is a new anthology of New Zealand science fiction poetry which is available from Amazon in paperback and Kindle editions, and also direct from the Australian publisher (follow the link for more info).

- &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.randomhouse.co.nz/Book_Display_46.aspx?CategoryId=122279&amp;ProductId=463327&quot;&gt;Transported&lt;/a&gt;, my second short fiction collection. Here's &lt;a href=&quot;http://timjonesbooks.blogspot.com/2008/10/ten-reasons-why-transported-makes-great.html&quot;&gt;Ten Reasons Why Transported Makes a Great Present&lt;/a&gt; - including quotes from reviews.

- &lt;a href=&quot;http://users.actrix.co.nz/timjones/abkg.html&quot;&gt;All Blacks' Kitchen Gardens&lt;/a&gt;, my second poetry collection. See what &lt;a href=&quot;http://schroedingerstabby.blogspot.com/2009/01/inflight-reading.html&quot;&gt;one blogger has to say about it&lt;/a&gt;.
