ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Nap Lapkin is a much cooler name than Lance Manion. In retrospect, I wish I would have made my nom de plume Nap and given this secret agent character the moniker Lance. I would love to hear interviewers saying “So Nap, tell us about the new book.” I realize that mentioning that I want to steal the cool name of the very same character that I’ve just spent numerous stories getting you attached to seems counter-intuitive and perhaps even petty but it’s the closest thing to honesty I’ve ever shared in these dumb About the Author sections.
Interestingly enough, the name Nap Lapkin came from me screwing up the words lap and napkin while sitting at a restaurant with friends. I laughed about it for twenty minutes and thought it was just about the greatest name I’d ever heard. They laughed for about twenty seconds and thought it was just about the dumbest name they’d ever heard. My laughing for an additional nineteen minutes and forty seconds longer than they’d laughed about it completely ruined the meal.
Parting Thought From Nap Lapkin
I've spent a great deal of time traveling in third world countries. The worst part is when there’s no plumbing and you just have to go bathroom in a hole. Especially when you're on the second floor.
Terrible way to meet the folks downstairs.
And the people staying above you.
If you don't find this imagery funny, the problem is with you.
