Interview with an Author featuring Adam Stark

The Literary Vixen presents…

Joining us today is Adam Stark! Author of World’s Worst Murder Detective 2: Laws Stand Found!

My name is Adam Stark. I have been in the Rap game since 2007, and I take the craft of writing very seriously. I’ve worked extremely hard to perfect my talent of creating figurative language, wordplay mechanics, and expression through words to be able to break down the barriers of the English language. I was offered a record deal as well. Since 2015, I was inspired to take a break from Rap. I love stories, in all formats, from books, to audiobooks, to movies. I don’t truly know why it took me so long to decide to write books, but I’m so glad that I did! Just like my music, my freestyles, and my rap battles; my books are always free. I never cared about money, I just want to be remembered for my talent in this realm. Another motivation came when I announced that I would write my first book, my own family and friends thought that I was writing a book about Rap… I was annoyed, I wanted to write stories that have absolutely nothing to do with Rap. I have one advantage of having read so many books, stories, and seen so many films in my life (way too many) that I knew how to engage a reader/lister without reminding them of some other story. Because of this, it takes me a long time to write. I have standards that put a lot of pressure onto myself to make sure that my stories have solid and interesting motifs, intriguing characters, visual imagery for action sequences, and great plot twists. My twists are always within the realm of possibility, I will never take the easy way out and use a plot twist that seems more like a convenient excuse.
My most successful book is ‘World’s Worst Murder Detective 2: Laws Stand Found!’
This book absolutely exploded my expectations, I couldn’t possibly fathom how well it would do, and I was euphoric when the success came to fruition! My first comedy book was short, and based strongly on my amateur livestream comedy performances online. When I finished 2 unrelated books since then, something really inspired me. I love court cases, and courtroom drama. I had a realization, that my story didn’t have to end with one book, and why in the world was I limiting myself?! This book, far surpasses the first in it’s series. I wrote it so carefully that the first book isn’t required to understand this story. I write out complex sophisticated dialogue that is done in the same manor of how I craft my Rap metaphors, although without rhyming. I perfectly molded a perfect hybrid character who is equally as intelligent, as he is a complete fool! Book smart, and yet, socially disturbed, despite his high I.Q. This book did something I never thought was possible for me, first, it was featured on a website in a compilation called ‘Humor In The Time Of Covid’ and I thought that was such a nice surprise! But had I known… in just a few months later, on a major ebook website online, this book was ranked number one! And it remained ranked number one for over 20 weeks in a row! That is a personal accomplishment that I am very proud of! My goal was just to publish my books, I now know better, never let their be a ceiling! I hope many other authors do the same.

My true passion is Hip Hop. I’ve been writing my whole life, rhymes, raps, songs, poetry, parodies ect. I decided after all these years of writing, to try to test myself to write an entire book that has nothing to do with me or Hip Hop. As far as Rap goes, I have done it all with my very talented writing and my very talented freestyling (improvisational performances). I have wrote in many different rhyme patterns; I have created the most complex metaphors similes punchlines entendre’s alliterations homophones hyperbole’s onomatopoeia’s ect. I broke down barriers in the English language, for example I wrote the very first quintuple implied meaning line, you say it one way and it means 5 different things! And I’m also one of the worlds fastest rappers (or talkers) where I have proof of it where I hold up a stopwatch while I perform to prove legitimacy. I really enjoy writing and I take all of my work seriously, I do everything for free because I want to be remembered rather than be rich (potentially)
