Born and raised in Albany, New York, A.B. Nichols spent most of his formative years nurturing a passion for Humanities and basketball.
When his dreams of a sporting career proved out of reach, Nichols went to work in the family business of sporting sponsorships and public relations. At the same time, he took to studying the psyche and human behaviour, basing his analysis first and foremost on himself and his own personal experiences.
Since childhood he has been fascinated by ancient civilisations and the mysteries linked to them. He is a firm believer in the unofficial version of history as professed by renowned Azerbaijani writer Zecharia Sitchin, and Scottish journalist and writer Graham Hancock.
In recent times Nichols has increasingly labored under a feeling of powerlessness against the iniquities of the modern world, and has chosen to distance himself from a world full of suffering. He spends his days between his home office and his family, seeing friends and acquaintances sporadically.
In 2016, a traumatic sequence of events prompted him to turn his life around and fully commit himself to writing as a creative means of fighting his own personal battle.
It is to his father, author of poems and short stories, that he says he owes his love of writing and his interest in exploring the inner self.
To date, A.B. Nichols has also written two anthologies of poems, short stories and essays.
His debut novel, The Cure, is the first book in the trilogy entitled The Peter Norch Chronicles.
