| Summary: | 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 Bowler also gives Teachers TV exclusive access to the remote garret where he works, and reads from an unpublished novel. Get drawn into the anarchic world of award-winning author Anthony McGowan whose books Hellbent and Henry Tumour combine toilet humour with existential philosophy and have been described as vulgar, boisterous, funny, sensitive and wise. In this witty portrait, McGowan reveals his inspirations and demonstrates a simple technique for creative writing. |
