Brace yourself for a whole bunch of laughter! Ashley Poston and I had a grand time talking about writing books in the IP spaces of Buffy and Marvel, as well as the pressures that come from your adult romance debut getting picked up by Good Morning America's book club. This is a whole adventure and I loved every second of it. I hope you do too.
