Now with four books to his name - two epic poems, one poetry collection, a cook book and my university dissertation on Ugliness In 20th Century Literature. Tim is already busy working on future projects - a horror feature film, a thriller, and a gay romance novel.

For the last two years, Tim Cashmore has received Best In Show, together with prize winning cups and a shiny salver at his local village home produce show!

Other than Rude Food: May Contain Nuts, his tongue-in-cheek cook book, Tim has also published his epic American Presidents History Poem, where each president gets a verse, with a chorus that name-checks those already mentioned, building up until all 44 presidents are named in the order they served. For the first time ever, Tim's American history knowledge (Presidentially-speaking at least), has finally changed from zero to hero! He hopes to do the same with the scarily large list of British Prime Ministers, although he's often too busy eating his baked goodies or working on a new recipe.

Tim has previously written, directed and edited a ten minute Halloween film about a milkman. He's halfway through a horror screenplay and is developing ideas for a thriller as well as more short films.

Despite being the wrong side of middle age, Tim manages to avoid behaving like a grown-up wherever possible. He's 42, although with the age of cutting-edge digital manipulation technology, manages to look significantly older. After having an imaginary cat for years, Tim now resides in Norfolk with his partner, a very real cat and a VERY barky dog.
