About the author
Rob Aspinall
24 books56 followersRob has never been in a car chase, a gun battle or a fight to the death. But he does come armed with a vivid imagination. And he’s not afraid to use it.
Originally a copywriter in the shadowy world of advertising, Rob went rogue in 2016 and started to publish books under the fiendishly inventive pseudonym of… Rob Aspinall.
He currently lives in Manchester, UK, where he writes fast, funny thrillers with an original twist. Whether it’s spies, mobsters, serial killers or trained killers, Rob loads all of his books with action, humour and heart-thumping thrills.
You can find his novels in ebook, audiobook and paperback formats.
Plus, you can get your fiction fix through his Truly Deadly and Breaker podcasts. (Just check your favourite podcast player to find the shows.)
In the meantime, check out these author FUQs (Frequently Unasked Questions):
What’s it like being an author?
It’s fantastic. I get to make up stories for a living and share them with my wonderful readers. There’s a lot more to it than that, of course, with all the marketing and promotion you need to do. You have to invest a lot of time, money and energy into being an author. And I don’t always feel like writing. But it’s like any other career. There are things you love and things you don’t, but it’s well worth it.
What’s the most important thing to remember when writing a book?
You’re not writing the book for yourself. You’re writing it for someone else. So it has to make sense to the reader. And above all, it has to be entertaining. I challenge myself to make every book more engrossing, entertaining and memorable than the last. I guess this kind of thinking comes from my years working as an advertising copywriter – if I had a slogan, it would be ‘Start with the reader and work backwards’, which is a shameless rip-off of Amazon’s motto.
How would you describe your writing style?
Other than trying to keep my writing style simple and accessible, I’d describe my style more in storytelling terms. The exact way of writing may change depending on the book, the character and who’s doing the narrating. But regardless of genre, series or novel, I make sure I stick to some basic storytelling principles – that is has to be simple, gripping, fun on some level and always moving at a decent pace. My only aim is to entertain or inspire the reader at all times—not to fill the book with flowery prose or get to a certain number of words.
Do you ever get ‘writer’s block’?
I only think you get writer’s block when you start worrying about it. In fact, I would say writer’s block is more like writer’s lag. There’s sometimes a lag time between staring at the screen or page and the answer coming to you. And it’s because the ideas, stories and words don’t come from the conscious mind. The subconscious mind comes up with them and feeds them to you. But when you get uptight and start worrying, it’s easy to block the subconscious mind from serving up the ideas.
The best thing you can do is relax and let the answers come. If I’m really getting nowhere with an idea, a plot or a particular scene or sentence, I’ll skip onto the next one. Or I’ll take a short break and do something totally unrelated to writing.
It's something I've often done while working in creative advertising, coming up with campaign ideas and slogans. But I often repeat the trick when I’m coming up with ideas for books.

fantastic book!
I've read all three books in the space of a week. If you're into Alex rider and cherub by Robert muchamore these are definitely the books for you. These books are brilliant, and kept me hooked until the end. With action, humor and emotional at times these short and sweet book were great. I'm hoping there will be a forth book! Download the first one for free, seriously worth it!

Entertaining
When I first read the reviews for this book they mentioned it was a YA this normally would put me off. I am so glad that I gave it a try, I thought it was a funny,interesting and very entertaining read. Once I read book 1 I quickly downloaded the other 2. I think this book appeals to both adults and the younger market. What are you waiting for , get reading .......

Couldn't put it down
Found all the books funny it helped me with my depression took me away from my life and that's what I look for in books. I have already told my mother about the first book and she loves it and has started on the second so many thanks to Rob for righting it will be looking out for more of his work.

Truly deadly
I really like this trilogy. Ok it's aimed at teens and I'm in my 60's, but I loved the action and the sassy as attitude of Lorna.
