Tim Reynolds is a Canadian twistorian, bending and twisting history into fictional shapes for sheer entertainment. His humorous non-fiction column in SEARCH Magazine is just as entertaining but is based strictly on his bizarre, event-filled life.

His latest novel is "The Sisterhood of the Black Dragonfly", a pure fantasy with a touch of steampunk.

His most popular novel is "Waking Anastasia" from Tyche Books. It's a tale of death, laughter, and love...in that order, and it made the Long List for the Edmonton Public Library's Alberta Readers' Choice Award, was selected by Kobo for the 2018 Royal Wedding Weekend Promotion, and reached Number 1 on the Calgary Herald's Local Bestseller's List in July 2018.

It became available in print in early 2015. The Second Edition is now available.

Tim's published short stories can be found gathered together in "The Death of God and Other Stories", and range from lighthearted fantasy to turn-on-the-damned-lights-now horror, and include the story of a bus driver who kills all his passengers, evil fashion advice, a tale of a dying folk singer's moments teaching Death a love song, and a dark, depressing view of the near future of reality TV and child-rearing.

His 100-word story “Temper Temper” was a winner of Kobo Writing Life’s Jeffrey Archer Short Story Challenge, and his short story "Tamarack and the Stone" was a finalist for the 2016 Baen Fantasy Adventure Award, received an Honourable Mention in L.

He is currently working on a mystery series set in Seattle, and an urban fantasy set on Martha's Vineyard. ...more
