Hello #writersoftwitter. I'm Tim and I write mostly for children. My current series is Sherlock Bones. I've had 110 books published over the last 20 years, and I've kept a copy of each one, so here's a selfie shelfie...
Monster Mia is out in cinemas today. It's based on Monstrous Maud, which I wrote as AB Saddlewick 15 years ago. @arxanima have done a great job with it.
I couldn't resist making Pliny a crow as a @Herring1967 tribute.

@survivalguide Puzzle of Pompeii Just like the old Choose Your Own Adventures - except this time I survived first time! Lots of details of Pompeii. Characters all animals: Pliny is a crow, Atticus is a cat…. Engaging and informative with great puzzles to solve along the way.

I love a book that pulls readers right into the story! Detectograms: The Parrot Who Knew Too Much by @survivalguide & Steve Wood is a brilliant puzzle-solving story with 46 challenges to solve along the way. Perfect for holidays age 9+.

We were delighted to welcome author Tim Collins as part of our Book Week celebrations.
During the author sessions, our KG pupils explored the exciting world of mystery by creating and inventing their own characters, inspired by Tim Collins’ engaging storytelling. They shared imaginative ideas, asked thoughtful questions, and took their first steps in shaping their very own mystery stories.
It was a wonderful and inspiring start to a week dedicated to celebrating reading and creativity.
سعدنا باستضافة الكاتب تيم كولينز ضمن احتفالاتنا بأسبوع الكتاب.
وخلال جلسات الكاتب، استكشف طلاب الروضة عالم الغموض المشوّق من خلال ابتكار شخصياتهم الخاصة، مستلهمين ذلك من أسلوب تيم كولينز القصصي الجذاب. كما شاركوا أفكارهم الإبداعية، وطرحوا أسئلة مميزة، وبدأوا في صياغة قصص الغموض الخاصة بهم.
كانت بداية رائعة وملهمة لأسبوع يحتفي بالقراءة والإبداع.
