After writing six mystery novels featuring hospital custodian-shop steward Lenny Moss, he launched Hard Ball Press, a publishing and book editing company dedicated to helping working class people write and publish their stories. Timothy believes that when workers write stories about their work and their lives, they combat the constant attacks from the wealthy One Percent, who degrade and demean unions and workers.

He is also working with hospital workers from 1199C in Philadelphia tell the history of their union, as well as worker-writers from around the country.
