When he was a senior in college, Dean Koontz won an Atlantic Monthly fiction competition and has been writing ever since. His books are published in 38 languages and he has sold over 500 million copies to date. His latest book, After Death, is out now.

We had an amazing chat with Dean about his writing career, hearing how he got started back in 1968 writing sci fi, why he pivoted to suspense thrillers and horror, and how he continues to come up with amazing new ideas for his novels. He also tells us how he comes up with his famous twists, and tells us why he chose to go with publisher Thomas & Mercer for his latest novels.
