Tim Jopling is a published author of fiction novels, with a particular interest in the spy and espionage genre. According to his personal website, Jopling has been an avid consumer of spy novels, TV shows, and films for many years. He names the original Ian Fleming James Bond novels as his favorite, and also enjoys the grittier Bond films featuring Daniel Craig. In addition to Bond, Jopling is a fan of the TV show 24.
Jopling's love for the genre inspired him to try his hand at writing his own stories. He was motivated by his disappointment in some spy films and TV shows, and by a particular scene in 24 involving a minor character named Paulson. This sparked his creativity and led him to create his own characters, Olsen and Deane, and their supporting cast. He works in IT full-time but enjoys writing in his spare time.
Jopling values the feedback he receives from readers and considers it invaluable to the development of his writing. He encourages readers to leave reviews of his work on Amazon and is grateful for the opportunity to share his stories with others.
