As a child, Adam was obsessed with science fiction, but somewhere along the way he ended up becoming a fantasy fiction author. Adam's writing is heavily influenced by the works of J.R.R Tolkien and Stephen R. Donaldson, as well as Buronson's (Yoshiyuki Okamura) manga Hokuto No Ken and the comedic stylings of both Mel Brooks and Monty Python.
As a lifelong pro wrestling fan, he also loves writing about himself in the third person.
