I'm also the author of Bliss out 17/4/2020.

Where do you live?

​I live in London. I should have looked ahead at the questions. :P

What’s your home life like?

​Home life is pretty quiet right now*. I have been made redundant due to the effect of covid 19 on business. I write for 4 hours every morning. I job hunt. I walk my dog in the local park. My partner and I play board games. Current favourites are Talisman, Rumikub and Quirkle.

*Interview answers received 4/11/20

What genre(s) do you like to write? To read?

​I love to read fantasy and literary fiction.
My bookshelf has Bulgakov and Foster Wallace next to George RR Martin and Joe Abercrombie.

I've written two fantasy novels and I'm working on some literary fiction.

Why did you start writing?

I felt like I had stories to tell and I have always loved to read.

via GIPHY


What do you do when you’re not writing?

​I love to read. I love to hang out with my partner and our dog. I play boardgames. I play magic the gathering. I watch television. I'm a normal guy... I think.

via GIPHY


Where do you like to go when looking for a new book to read?

​It depends what I'm in the mood for. I like book stores, I like second hand ones too. I've borrowed books from train station libraries. I love my kindle. There are so many talented indie authors I'd never have known about without it.

via GIPHY


​At what point do you call it quits when reading a new book?

​At the end of the book. I love to read and revisit a book again down the line.

via GIPHY


Are you independently or traditionally published?

​I'm independently published. I see merit in both methods and say good luck to all authors in both publishing settings.

via GIPHY


How many books/stories have you published so far?

​I've published two fantasy novels. The force of the light in 2017 and Bliss which is out 17/4/2020.

What book/story are you currently promoting or working on?

​I'm working on a literary fiction piece a little inspired by Chuck Palahniuk. It's about an insurance scam artist who is found out and blackmailed into blackmailing somebody.

I don't want to say too much. I hope it's interesting enough from that to read it.

What’s the elevator pitch?

​Not a clue at the moment. I hope that's not too off-putting. I don't expect this to be out until 2021.

via GIPHY


How long have you been working on it?

I've been working on this for 1 month. I'm happy with it so far. I usually hit 70,000 words on a novel and start again.

When will it be available to buy? Where?

​Bliss is out to buy 17/4/2020 via Amazon in all territories.

How can readers find you?

Come follow me on twitter @Authordan
I'm fairly active there and would love to say hi.

Anything you’d like to add?

​Please everybody stay safe during the covid19 outbreak.

Good luck with all your writing and I hope Bliss finds a place in your hearts.


My thanks to Daniel Lawley for participating in My Laughably Inane Blog. I wish him an early release from quarantine and all the best in his writing endeavors.

Sincerely,

Nicholas P. Adams

Just a small-town boy with an overactive imagination.
