My first interview about my first book. Glad it was Anna asking the questions - cos she gets it (and gets what makes writing interesting).
A morning spent chatting with @TalkScaredPod about his upcoming novella, Good Boy from @wildhuntbooks, is a morning VERY well spent. Fortunate to know folks like Neil, & I cannot recommend Good Boy enough. Preorder link ⬇️, out on 10/9:.
