Author Interview with Iain Kelly

Who are you?

Iain Kelly

Where do you live?

Glasgow, Scotland
Picture

What’s your home life like?

Father of twins, full-time television editor, writer and reader in whatever time is leftover...

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

At the moment I'm completing an imagined future sci-fi trilogy, but I also write literary drama and thrillers. I will read pretty much anything, but favourites are spy novels, noir, classics and thrillers.

via GIPHY


Why did you start writing?

I have been writing most of my life, I've always enjoyed it. I got into blogging and novel writing as something creative to do in my own time. I love doing it!

via GIPHY


What do you do when you’re not writing?

Chase around two five year olds and I get a rest when I go to work! I also like staying fit with a lot of running, and watching movies.

via GIPHY


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

I like nothing better than heading to a local book shop and choosing a pile of books to bring home and start pouring over.

via GIPHY


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

I always try to complete a book, even if I'm struggling at the beginning - I feel if the author has put in the effort to write it, they deserve to be given a chance. Sometimes it pays off, sometimes it hasn't been worth it!

via GIPHY


Are you independently or traditionally published?

At the moment I'm independently published, but, like many writers out there, I haven't given up hope of one day getting traditionally published too.

via GIPHY


How many books/stories have you published so far?

I have two completed novels on sale right now, and a collection of early short stories. On my blog I regularly publish short stories each week. There are numerous half-completed longer stories and false starts just waiting to be picked up again.

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

At the moment I am promoting my 2nd novel - 'State of Denial', the second in a trilogy I call 'The State Trilogy'. The first novel in the series is 'A Justified State' which is also available now. I am slowly starting to creep into writing the third and final novel in the series - 'State of War'. The story is all in my head, I just need to get it down on paper.

What’s the elevator pitch?

The near future, a corrupt political State, an assassin and an ex-cop caught in the middle of a civil war.

How long have you been working on it?

Just starting this 3rd novel and I aim to have it ready to be published in the summer of 2020.

When will it be available to buy? Where?

Like the previous two books, I will release it on Amazon as a paperback or for Amazon Kindle.

How can readers find you?

What inspires you to keep writing?

I just love to create worlds and stories about interesting characters within them. It's a great way to escape everyday life.

Anything you’d like to add?

I hope a few people will be inspired to check out my novels and let me know what they think of them. Thanks for taking the time to read a bit about me and my work.


My many thanks to Iain Kelly for participating in My Laughably Inane Blog. I wish him all the best chasing down his twins, his writing, and professional endeavors.

Sincerely,

Nicholas P. Adams

Just a small-town boy with an overactive imagination.
