3Q’S: Adam Light Dreams for the Dying!
What I love about 3Q’s – and I’ve said it before and will say it again – is that it has featured such a variety of authors, throughout so many different stages and levels of their writing career/time!
Today’s guest is an author whose work I greatly love! He’s been churning out stuff for a while now and every time he announces something new, I get super excited!
Please, do welcome Adam Light!
Steve: What does your writing time look like? Do you try and write at the same time each day? Do you have a word count you attempt to hit?
Adam: My writing schedule is about as seat of the pants as you can picture. I write when I can, and take notes wherever I may be. I don’t always end up using those notes, or even remembering them at all for that matter, but it does tend to help. I have notebooks piled everywhere. As far as word counts, I don’t like to get too hung up on that aspect of it, but I do, like everyone else, I’m sure. But at the end of the day, I like to think even if I have only saved a hundred good words, I can feel satisfied by that.
Steve: You end up at an estate sale and discover an unpublished manuscript from an author you love. Do you keep it just for yourself or do you share it with the world?
Adam: If I stumbled on this amazing unpublished work, and had to make that decision, I’d get it published the proper way so all of that author’s fans would benefit.
Steve: Tell me about your newest release (novel/story/poem/novella) and why someone should read it!
Adam: I haven’t released anything new for about a year, and that was Dreams for the Dying, a collection of previously released short stories. I’m working on a bunch of new things right now, and I decided I wanted to try finishing a new batch of stories, and releasing it all at once this time. I love the short form, and feel I flourish in that realm, so it has been my main focus when writing. I do have a novel or two that are in various states of completion, and hope to wrap some of that material in the near future. For now, if you dig short horror and weird tales, you should totally check out Dreams for the Dying.
Steve: Bonus Question! You wake up in a comic book. What is your comic book character and what is your super power?
Adam: I would probably end up in a Simpson comic book, and discover that I am Grampa, and I have succumbed to Bonus Eruptus. My super power would be spitting my skeleton from my mouth to scare off my enemies!
Ha! That’s a really great one! Thank you again, Adam!
