Meet the writer. Tim Bowler
Description
The best way to boost creativity in your class is to get a writer in. Failing that, watch this, Teachers TV's virtual equivalent. Meet award-winning author Tim Bowler, well-known for his mystical, psychological adventure thrillers such as Frozen Fire, Storm Catchers and River Boy. We film his inspirational visit to talk to pupils at Ivybridge Community College and show how teachers and pupils prepare to make an author visit a success. Bowler also gives Teachers TV exclusive access to the remote garret where he works, and reads from an unpublished novel.
