Tim Facciola

I’m Tim Facciola: Fitness professional by day, fantasy author by night, and content creator in-between. I’m here to both share my creative work and build a community of like-minded nerds. With my debut, award-winning epic fantasy trilogy, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CK143ZK2?th=1&amp;psc=1&amp;geniuslink=true" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">A Vengeful Realm</a>, now out in the world, I want to create not just for me, but for others. For you. I want to share the creative process with a community that influences the stories I’m telling. Whether you are a reader, a writer, or a bit of both, there is a place here for you. Monthly, I will be releasing chapters of a new work in progress that follows a former soldier's struggle to free his enslaved family from a tyrannical regime. Want to read exclusive content, gain early access to book reviews, author interviews, and writing wisdom? Then pick up a torch and join the ranks.
