Nick Iuppa is also known as Nicholas Victor.

Always wanted to work in the movies. College got me an internship at MGM, and I worked on TV specials with Dr. Seuss and Chuck Jones (creator of the Road Runner). Became good friends with both of them. Later wrote for the Wonderful World of Disney. Went to Paramount Pictures where I designed internet entertainment and built Hollywood-style training simulations for the military. But the movie business made it hard to express my own personal creativity. (Too many decision makers). So, I started writing novels so that I could control everything.

I Spent Time with My Dad Last Night

I spent time with my dad last night. It was his sixtieth birthday, and the entire family was gathered at the Crescent Beach Hotel in Rochester, New York, where I grew up. It had always been the site of our biggest celebrations, my engagement party, everything.

All white and gingerbready, the place looked like a wedding cake with lots of frosting. Plus, they served fantastic food.

Species II by Nick Iuppa
"Fun

This was such a fun book to read with really great characters. I immediately fell in love with all the kids! I thought K was super cool too. The story pulled me in right from page one. The author does a great job of getting the reader to care deep" Read more of this review »
Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman
"The last time I was giggeling that much reading a book was my first time on "A hitchhikers guide...".
This book was just hilarious!
I really enjoyed it a lot, and already bought book no. II. "
Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman
"... And now for something different. Really different. A completely different kind of reading experience than you have ever had before. The closest thing that I can even come closest to with this one is a combination of Douglas Adam’s “The Hitchhiker" Read more of this review »

Very cleaver murder mystery with a confusion of sisters and brothers wondering which one of them murdered their grumpy old father. Funny and entertaining with an amazingly creative ending.

“Grown-ups don't look like grown-ups on the inside either. Outside, they're big and thoughtless and they always know what they're doing. Inside, they look just like they always have. Like they did when they were your age. Truth is, there aren't any grown-ups. Not one, in the whole wide world.”
Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Lane

“Punishing the devil is a dangerous business.”
Nick Iuppa, Alicia's Ghost

“God says, "the check's in the mail.”
Tom Robbins

“The most important things are the hardest to say, because words diminish them.”
Stephen King

“Words have a magical power. They can bring either the greatest happiness or deepest despair; they can transfer knowledge from teacher to student; words enable the orator to sway his audience and dictate its decisions. Words are capable of arousing the strongest emotions and prompting all men's actions.”
Sigmund Freud

Thanks, Graneo... you too. Should be great. I'm reading Cujo, listening to The Night Circus, and writing an extreme horror novel.

It's pretty strong stuff and sometimes a little repellant, but even so, it's beautifully written and may be instructive for anyone wanting to write erotic passages or graphic love scenes.


Latasha hi Nick. i did not read anne rice's beauty series but i know of it.


Meliss Happily nominated your book. Lost in poetry writing. Hoping for more time to read this month!

I've read all his novels and novellas. I haven't read all his short stories though.
