The Danny and Park Novels Good News Podcast

Welcome back to the podcast. I’m Jamie Baynes. At the beginning of the summer, I saw this book entitled The Sideways Life of Denny Voss, and it had an amazing cover. You know the adage, you can’t judge a book by its cover? Well, this one, you can. The book is as incredible as its cover. I devoured the book in a few days, then emailed the author to see if she’d come on the podcast. Holly Kennedy agreed, and here she is. I hope you enjoy the episode. After you listen, let me know what you think...

Welcome back to the podcast. I’m Jamie Baynes. I’m delighted to have back on for her 100th appearance on the show, bestselling author Yasmin Angoe. So, maybe I exaggerated a bit about the number of times she's been a guest, but she’s so delightful, I’d feel lucky indeed if she did do a hundred episodes. We’re going to jump right into it, but a disclaimer first: I forgot to hit the record button until after about 45 seconds of our conversation, so let’s just say that it begins rather abruptly....

Welcome back to the podcast. I’m Jamie Baynes. As I may have mentioned before, I’m a member of NetGalley, which is a website where members can read books before they’re released.

I got it, read two chapters, stopped reading, and immediately checked Amazon and bought the other two books in the series. Yes, it was and is that good. I reached out to him to see if he’d come on the show, and here h...

Welcome back to the podcast. I’m Jamie Baynes. About a month ago, David Deane Haskell reached out to me to see if I’d be interested in having him on as a guest. He’d written a nonfiction book called ‘Wounded Angels’ and wanted to talk about it. Well, of course I wanted to have him on an episode, but since he’s currently living in Tokyo, scheduling was interesting, to say the least. But here he is. I hope you enjoy our conversation. And after you listen, let me know what you think of David. I ...

Welcome back to the podcast. I’m Jamie Baynes. A few months ago, I got an email from a publicist asking if I’d like to interview New York Times bestselling author Kieran Scott on the podcast. Well, we all know how much I enjoyed talking to authors, so I readily agreed, then read her bio and was stunned. She’s written 50 novels. 5-0. Incredible. And I’m lucky enough to have her as a guest, and now you’re lucky enough to hear her. I hope you enjoy our conversation. After you listen, let me know...
