Tim always wanted to write a book. Eight years ago, he started writing a book called How to Write a Book, but after starting the first chapter he realised that he probably wasn’t the right person to write that book.

Writing Dementia Well – An article written for The Bookseller

We all know the adage, write what you know. But how do we write about, and publish stories on, subjects we can never truly understand?

This is the question I faced when writing my second novel, Tiny Pieces of Enid. The main character is based on my own Nanny Enid, who suffered with dementia in later life. My ultimate goal was to raise awareness of the disease and to offer some familiarity and suppo

Tim Ewins liked Nicola Gilg's review of We Are Animals: "I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the humorous style of writing. It would've been 5 stars but I dropped a star because I really wanted to see Manjan and Ladyjan reunite! The fact that I wanted this does show that these were characters to care about!"
