Ep 75: Dhonielle Clayton

Hang with me and Dhonielle Clayton, co-author of TINY PRETTY
THINGS and its sequel, SHINY BROKEN PIECES (out now!), as well as
author of forthcoming series THE BELLES (spring ’17). She talks
about weekly childhood trips to the bookstore, being a writing
n00b, accidentally getting a boarding school job, and writing to
arrested development.
