Awards
Allied with his daily work with words, Adam has a strong interest in the use of language, its possibilities and permutations.
That interest led to Adam winning two of New Zealand’s top awards for emerging fiction writers (the Victoria University Award for Original Composition and the Louis Johnson Bursary) in the mid-1990s.
Adam says the creative skills he has developed in his fiction writing have repeatedly proved themselves invaluable in bringing fresh but pragmatic approaches to commercial projects.
