Can a thriller be scary and funny at the same time?
In this episode, bestselling author Jason Rekulak talks about his new novel, Look What the Cat Dragged In, a supernatural story about a cartoonist, a very strange cat, and a comic strip that keeps getting darker. Jason explains how he built the rules for his demon, why he brings his illustrators in before the manuscript is done, and how Roald Dahl and Stephen King's Misery shaped the way he mixes humor and dread.
Jason has won an ITW Award and a Goodreads Choice Award and been an Edgar finalist, and he's open about a process that runs against the usual "just finish the draft" advice.
This one is perfect for any writer stuck halfway through a manuscript.
Jason also reveals why he rewrites his first 75 pages over and over, and why you should never talk about the book you're writing.
