Simple LOOP script help

I am trying to create a simple ksh loop script. What I've pasted below is not working. Any help is appreciated.

typeset -i count
typeset -i tcount
count=0
tcount=0
while $tcount >= 11
do
print "\$count is $count"
pwd
ls -l
sleep 30
$(( $tcount = $count + 1 ))
$count=$tcount
done
