About Adam

I have written on travel, crime, politics, archaeology, and civil wars – both contemporary and historical – for outlets like the BBC, NPR, and The Christian Science Monitor, and I have been a regular author for Lonely Planet, where I've contributed to over 100 guidebooks, covering every continent bar Antarctica. My creative nonfiction has appeared in multiple non-fiction anthologies, as well as Catapult, The Bitter Southerner, Stranger's Guide, Huck, Worldhum, The Statesider, and The Best American Travel Writing.

My debut novel, Luna & the Heart of the Forest, a middle grade dark fantasy, was published by Breakwater Books and named a top Canadian children's book by Teach Magazine. I live in New Orleans with my wife, two kids, and a dog. Find more at walkonfine.com.
