Keeping tabs on authors in LINKcat: Tim Dorsey

 



New York Times, 12/2/2023
Mr. Dorsey did not develop as much national name recognition as Mr. Hiaasen or Dave Barry, both of them also journalists turned Florida novelists, but his fans were legion and avid. They came to his readings with Serge-themed T-shirts and tattoos, and over the years organized Serge-themed festivals around the state, often in the sort of rural, swampy settings that filled Mr. Dorsey’s books. 
When asked in the Powell’s interview for his idea of the good life, Mr. Dorsey said he was living it. 
“I couldn’t write a better job description: Travel Florida wherever my curiosity leads me, talk to locals, venture down the most remote back roads,” he said. “Then come home and weave all the cool things I found — historic, obscure, funky — into seemingly outrageous crime plots that are but thinly veiled reflections of what fills our newspapers down here every day.”
