silverfoot

Silverfoot is the nom de plume For Tim Skilton. It is a childhood nickname derived from an incident in which he stepped into a bucket of silver paint, literally acquiring a silver foot. Since becoming an author after retiring from the field of education, he has frequently wondered what he has stepped into this time. Nevertheless, he enjoys writing and refuses to give it up, despite the pleadings of his wife of more than fifty years. They still live together in Los Angeles, California, near their three children and five grandchildren.
