There are only, in my humble opinion, two kinds of readers: readers who love your books and readers who don’t know they love your books yet. But how do you reach those readers in the second category, no matter what kind of writer you are? The answer to that question is...universal fantasy.

Along the way, Eskenazi discusses interviewing other reluctant subjects and writing under the intense pressure of a deadline.
