In this episode of Quills and Chills, join me as I sit down with acclaimed writer and editor Dan Kois to discuss his latest book, 'Hampton Heights.' With nominations for two National Magazine Awards and two Writers Guild Awards under his belt, Kois delves into his unique journey from journalism to fiction and his inspiration behind 'Hampton Heights.' We explore the rich, folklore-based supernatural elements of the book, its 1980s Milwaukee setting, and the personal experiences that influenced the characters. Dan also shares insights into his creative process and the transformative experiences of his well-crafted characters.
