Meet Lisa Adams: Your guide to heartfelt stories
Greetings from Scotland! I'm Lisa Adams, and my world revolves around storytelling, my family – including my husband, two grown-up children, and mother-in-law – and the breathtaking Scottish landscapes I explore with my beloved Labradors. Beyond my role as a Disability and Inclusion Adviser at an Edinburgh University, my deepest passions lie in crafting narratives that resonate with the human experience. Come along as we delve into the heart of identity and belonging, themes that have shaped my life and my writing.
My journey to storytelling
As an adopted child, I've always been captivated by the intricate questions of identity and belonging. These profound themes are the heartbeat of my work, guiding me to write stories that encourage readers to delve deeper, to seek out hidden truths, and to understand that beneath the surface of seemingly ordinary lives lie truly extraordinary tales waiting to be discovered. My writing is an invitation to explore the richness of the human spirit.
The power of belonging
My narratives are crafted to resonate with anyone who has ever pondered their place in the world. I believe every individual's journey is unique and holds a universe of compelling stories. Through my books, I aim to create a space where readers can connect with characters who navigate the complexities of their past, embrace their present, and forge a future where they truly belong. It's about finding the extraordinary in the everyday.
My new book: The Truth Behind The Silence
My latest book is a story crafted from the heart, offering a profound insight into the overwhelming emotions experienced when birth families reconnect. It's a journey not just for adopted adults, but for anyone seeking a narrative filled with hope and genuine human connection. If you're a fan of programmes like 'Long Lost Families' and appreciate a truly happy ending that can both make you smile and move you to tears, then this is the story for you.
"This book touched my soul in ways I didn't expect. It's a beautiful, poignant story that brought both tears and smiles. A truly moving experience that will stay with you long after the last page."
