Tim Pietz

At age 12, Tim read through Tolkien’s The Return of the King in a single day. Concerned he would run out of good books if he continued reading at this pace, Tim had no choice but to pursue a career in publishing. After graduating with a B.S. in Professional Writing and a B.A. in Strategic Communication from Taylor University, Tim pursued a freelance editing career, where he has had the opportunity to edit for Tyndale House, Wheaton Press, and individual authors. Now, as Mountain Brook Ink’s publicity manager, he enjoys being at the forefront of getting quality Christian fiction into the hands of hungry readers.
