  • Craft Lessons from A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE (Spoiler free)
    Jul 3 2024

Great content from 2 of my favorite authors!

Just finished listening to the episode with Reginald Hudlin. They have the coolest guests . The conversation let's us see behind the showbiz curtain but also gives good advice for aspring writers/artists. Love it!
