Timothy Underwood

Timothy Underwood is a self-published fiction author born in Southern California who lives in Budapest, Hungary. He studied early modern history at UC Berkeley and has made a living for years writing Pride and Prejudice fan fiction variations, with popular titles including Mr. Darcy and Mr. Collins's Widow, Colonel Darcy, and A Compromised Compromise. In 2022, he received an ACX grant (from Scott Alexander's ACX Grants program) to fund writing a fantasy novel promoting Effective Altruism. The resulting novel, The Split Summon: Two Souls, One Body, is an isekai/portal fantasy about an effective altruist who dies and wakes up in a fantasy world with magical powers, embedding EA concepts and perspectives into the narrative. He serialized the novel on Royal Road and SpaceBattles forums before publishing it on Amazon, and shared draft chapters with the EA and LessWrong communities for feedback. He is active on LessWrong (username: timothy-underwood-1) and the EA Forum (username: timunderwood).
