Timothy C. Webber is a service-connected disabled U.S. Navy veteran and LGBTQ+ writer based in Dallas, Texas. Originally from Savannah, Georgia, he served eleven years in the Navy as an electronics technician before turning his attention to storytelling. His technical background and lived experience inform a body of work grounded in emotional precision, quiet resilience, and character-driven narrative.
Webber writes across genres, including LGBTQ+ fiction, young adult literature, historical nonfiction, and screenwriting. His stories frequently explore memory, identity, belonging, and the way meaning lingers in objects, landscapes, and silence. Whether set in small towns, intimate domestic spaces, or emotionally charged moments of transformation, his work centers on individuals navigating dignity, loss, humor, and unexpected connection.
His debut novella, Death of a Cigarette, was featured in Publishers Weekly Magazine’s Indie Spotlight and selected for Indie Texas by BiblioBoard. His children’s novella, How Timmy Became a Bear, was also selected for Indie Texas, adapted into a feature-length animated screenplay, and submitted for the Lambda Literary Award. He is the author of Turdle, a character-based work exploring identity and acceptance, and the nonfiction history Fort on the River: The Founding of Webberville, TX, which examines the layered memory of place and community.
As a screenwriter, Webber focuses on emotionally grounded stories with strong visual metaphors, layered subtext, and intimate character arcs. His work often blends gentle humor with sincerity, allowing vulnerability and resilience to coexist without sentimentality.
Drawing from military service, LGBTQ+ identity, and a lifelong fascination with how objects hold history, Webber’s writing seeks to preserve small, human truths that might otherwise be overlooked. He believes some stories, and some silences, are worth preserving.
