I am privileged to have this opportunity to bring "Tim McCreight: Marks of a Maker" to life. This is the place to follow along on the journey.
This book almost didn't get to see the light of day. Several years I approached Tim about the idea and well, he said "no thanks." I persisted and here, with his blessing, I am proud to have this opportunity (and responsibility) to bring this book to life.

I am a serial purveyor of the creative trades. My formal arts training began well before my matriculation at MECA&D, where I earned my BFA with a major in Metalsmithing & Jewelry. And, as taught by my mentor, Tim McCreight, I self-identify as simply a maker and resist the label of artist or writer.
It's important to me to support local businesses and I am thrilled to be collaborating with the very talented Eb Akakpo of Akakpo & Co here in Westbrook. He's helping to laser etch the bookmarks for the crowdfunding campaign.

This book project requires a lot of administrative skill and communication, from scheduling interviews to developing relationships with vendors and collaborators. A project like this also needs commitment and curiosity when things get tough.
As this project progresses, this is where you will find special content from interviews to video outtakes. You will also find links and resources here.
