Page Break Episode 11: Dan Wells

The eleventh episode of my new podcast Page Break is now out! In this episode, my guest is horror and science fiction author Dan Wells.

Dan is the author of the best-selling and critically-acclaimed I am Not a Serial Killer, which was turned into a major motion picture in 2016. He’s also written the Partials Sequence, the Mirador series, the Audible Original Zero G, and a number of other novellas, short stories, and stand-alone novels.

I talk with Dan about authorial branding; supporting his family during the pandemic as a professional game master; some of the ins and outs of their business, and about Dan's current collaboration with our mutual friend Brandon Sanderson.


Page Break with Brian McClellan is a collection of casual conversations between me and fellow creative professionals—like two friends sitting down over lunch to discuss career, craft, family, and hobbies.

Authorhood is a quiet sort of minor fame where the person behind the words is often obscured by the works they’ve created. I aim to use this podcast to find out more about my friends and colleagues.

Look forward to weekly conversations with creators like TV writer/producer Joseph Mallozzi, epic fantasy author Robin Hobb, science fiction author Pierce Brown, Twitch streamer Mark Hulmes, and many more!
