Page One - The Writer's Podcast Ep. 163 - Nick Harkaway on turning ideas into stories, why Gnomon nearly broke him and why he wants to write a Star Wars movie
Nick Harkaway is the bestselling author of hugely imaginative speculative thrillers such as The Gone Away World, Tigerman and Gnomon. He has also released two thrillers under the name Aiden Truhen. His latest book is a hugely enjoyable futuristic detective thriller, Titanium Noir.
We really enjoyed speaking with Nick about his career, hearing about his foray into scriptwriting, and how he eventually turned his hand to novel writing after many years. We hear about how he managed to write the ambitious Gnomon, why it nearly broke him, and what it taught him about writing. Plus, he tells us about his latest novel, Titanium Noir, and we ask about rumours that he would like to write a Star Wars movie...
