Charting New Waters: TJ Klune & Daniel Henning Discuss SOMEWHERE BEYOND THE SEA

Joe is joined by two of his favorite people, author TJ Klune and audiobook narrator Daniel Henning to talk about their work together on Somewhere Beyond the Sea (out now from Tor and Macmillan audio)! TJ shares how he channeled love, joy and rage into this book, why it's important to create safe spaces, and what you can expect from his writing in the future. Daniel shares his amazing process, work on creating new characters, channeling our existing favorites, and what it felt like to be on the NYT bestseller list for this audiobook! A huge thank you to TJ and Daniel for joining me today. You can follow TJ on Instagram here, and Daniel on Instagram here! Listen to my first episode with TJ and Daniel here!
