J-F. Dubeau: From National Novel Writing Month to Horror Bestseller and Hollywood

J-F. Dubeau joins us for the first episode of Unedited as we kick off on Halloween and kick into National Novel Writing Month. JF is a native of Montreal and the author of several books, including the bestseller A God in the Shed, which Barnes & Noble selected as one of the Best Horror Books of 2017—and which began its life in NaNoWriMo. A God in the Shed earned options from some of the most elite TV studios in the world, including Skydance, and attention from some of the top producers in the business, including Academy Award winner Akiva Goldsman. J-F. is the writer behind the popular podcast Achewillow, which will soon be published in novel form by Inkshares. On this maiden episode of Unedited, we explore the books that inspired J-F., his approach to horror writing, the process of adaptation, and his advice for writers, including those beginning the journey for the first time this November.
