edit data

Tim Robinson is a third generation Floridian, his grandfather having taken up a 100 acre homestead on Cape Canaveral in 1924. It was his grandfather and father who instilled in him a love for everything Florida. Tim grew up in West Palm Beach, halfway between saltwater Lake Worth and freshwater Lake Mangonia, where he spent his childhood and youth traipsing through the woods or biking over to the beach or taking in the wonders of Florida in some fashion or another. He lives with his wife, Connie, on a small farm in Indiantown, Florida.

Tim Robinson answered Heidi Lynn's question: I was looking for a Florida book and keep seeing your name pop up. I don't normally read series books, I'm more of a one and done reader. However, I was born in Brevard Country, specifically Patrick AFB. and am interested in reading anything set in Brevard county. Which book would you recommend? Oh, gee. How about The Foundling. You might be pleasantly surprised.

Quotes by Tim Robinson (?)

“But what is love? Is it measurable or quantifiable in any way? And must it be justifiable? Or even rational? And must love come from the heart? Or must it come only from the heart, as many have put forth over the course of time, that love is strictly a denizen of the heart? And how do we know if it is our heart or our head that speaks to us? Or is it simply something you talk yourself into? And why would a girl do such a thing? Because she feels like she ought to,”
― Tim Robinson, A Tropical Frontier: The Quest
