ⓘ About Tim Bowler

Since Tim was a boy, he has been writing stories. He finds that he is a storyaholic, and believes in the power that stories have to move us, transform, and entertain us. For him, writing is just as much about putting down words as it is listening. It begins with a whisper, or a silent sound that flickers in the dark, then while you continue to listen, you find that the whisper turns into an idea, and the idea into an obsession. Before you know it, there are words down on the page, with settings and characters, with the plot bubbling all around them like white water. Bowler speaks at schools, conferences, and book festivals. He also makes regular appearances on BBC Radio Five Live where he reviews books.
