About N.P. Martin
Ever since I can remember, I have been drawn to dark, twisted stories that involve anti-heroes and usually monsters as well. This is why I was delighted to discover the urban fantasy genre, because it perfectly encapsulates everything I love about dark fiction… dark fiction that is also fun! Like the Ethan Drake Series, my most popular series.
I have been writing for a long time. But for the last ten years I have been writing professionally and full time, which is a fancy way of saying I get paid for writing pulp fiction books.
Before this financial miracle of miracles occurred, I had to earn my living doing all sorts of menial jobs. Mostly manual labour, but I was also a salesman, a nightclub bouncer, and a professional martial arts instructor. That last job wasn’t menial. It was also very rewarding. But despite my love of martial arts, I was a writer at heart. So I had give up teaching people how to kick someone’s ass. Sorry, I mean I had to give up teaching self defence. There.
Anyway, I took writing seriously, and I’m thankful I did. Now I’m truly doing what I love… and getting paid to do it!
If you’re the kind of person who likes to know more details about a person, then you can read this full interview I did for Smashwords. It will tell you enough of what you need to know about me, including my background, my thoughts on writing, and what I do when I’m not writing.
If, after that, you really, really want to know more, then meet me down the pub, buy me a single malt whisky, and I’ll happily spill my guts to you.
For now, go check out my books if you haven’t already. You can even buy them here on the site!
Magic is everywhere these days…
