Biography
HI there! my name is Patrick Timm but my friends call me Pat. I am a freelance writer, author and columnist. I have written a weather column for The Columbian newspaper in Vancouver, Washington since December 1990. I have also written articles for Sunset, Oregon Coast and Weatherwise magazines and was a columnist for two years at the South Whidbey Record newspaper on Whidbey Island, Washington An editor and feature editor on my high school newspaper for three years at Benson Polytechnic High School in Portland, Oregon where I majored in Graphic Arts and Journalism. I studied journalism at Portland State University and received the Eric W. Allen award for journalism from the University of Oregon. Memberships include the Willamette Writers Association, Oregon Colony of Writers, Whidbey Island Writers Association , Oregon Chapter of the American Meteorology Society and Northwest Independent Writers Association. My latest endeavor is writing the trilogy, ‘Whispers in the Wind’ which I will have a separate page on this site with snippets of that work in progress. I am getting book 2 complete and have ideas for the conclusion of the trilogy. I also have begun writing a mystery/thriller set on the Oregon coast. Quite intriguing. While not writing I enjoy walking and meditating on the beach, hiking, playing with my little Yorkie , daydreaming and of course weather. I was born and raised in Portland Oregon, lived in Vancouver and now reside in Ocean Park, Washington.
