˜Interview with Nollen Bradley˜
Where do you get inspiration for your stories?
Usually something happens to me, some event gives me inspiration. Then shortly after I’ll hear a song that reminds me of what happened and it appears. I start thinking of the plot, story lines dialogue and characters.
Like with Guardian unforgiven I had an experience baling hay in a field giving me the creeps, if you know what I mean. Then I was listening to Metallica’s songs Unforgiven 1, 2 and 3. That’s when the entire story unfolded.
How did you do research for your book?
That’s a good question, most everything geographical I already knew. The story itself was pretty easy. After being a Paramedic for twelve years, you study people in unusual circumstances.
Now the werewolf part… that was just a lot of hours on the internet with some unusual conversations with the wife over what she saw on my web browser.
I’m currently doing research for a historical romance that I started and am taking a trip to South Dakota to research some things. So, travel is not out of the question. I want things to be as realistic and accurate as they possible can. Especially when it came to the erotic parts.
Do you have another profession besides writing?
I farm here in Kansas but not like I once did or in the way we once did. Writing is my full-time profession.
If you could go back in time, where would you go?
Probably the old west. I think back then things were just as complicated as they are now. But, the complications were different.
What is your next project?
Well, I am just about finished with the second book in the Guardian Unforgiven series which will be out soon.
I also hope to have the third book in the series out by March or April 2018.
As, I mentioned earlier I am working on a Historical Romance which will take me a while due to all the research that is involved.

parent or a child that their loved one has died and there was nothing
he could do, to the struggles of trying to pursue a dream and

draws on real life experiences to provide exciting yet believable
story lines that captivate readers. Writing unbelievable tales with
the realism of the struggles from everyday life in the painful cookie
