National Book Award finalist and NY Times Bestselling author Laini Taylor, and her husband, award-winning graphic novelist/illustrator/mixed media fine artist/comic artist Jim DiBartolo, join me to talk about many things! Their young adult graphic novel "Billie Blaster and the Robot Army from Outer Space" recently debuted, and they are here to talk about how they collaborate, and how their artistic paths led to one another! Laini's YA novel series "Strange the Dreamer," and "Daughter of Smoke and Bone" both have topped many charts and are hugely popular, with their amazing world-building, characters, deep fantasy storylines, and a hearty sprinkling of romance.
Laini and Jim are just a joy to talk to, and any worries I had about interviewing an author and an artist at the same time went away in the first minute of talking with them. Enjoy!
