In this week’s episode, Marissa chats with Dan Santat about his newest graphic memoir, A FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING, which releases tomorrow, as well as: dealing with impostor syndrome after winning a big award, sharing your books with your kids, how traveling can open your heart to the world, give you perspective, and make you appreciate your privilege, continuing to be able to relate to new, younger readers and stay relevant in a time when content is constantly churning, how writers are in the business of selling emotion, and so much more!
