Welcome to the Things That Shape Us podcast. My name is Jonathan Wymer and I'm joined by James Gary to discuss a various range of subjects that are all related to one idea: How those things shape our lives.

In this episode, James and I discuss ONE THING that shaped our lives with our close friend and collaborator, Joshua Messarge...  Attention Scan! This is a Part One conversation about the new novel that Josh Messarge and Jonathan Wymer self-published on Amazon. This is a SPOILER-FREE episode where we discuss primarily the germ of the idea that eventually led us to writing the novel. We discuss the book's format, writing process, and the influences and inspirations that kept us going for the almost-year-and-a-half of sitting down and writing the story. We're super excited to continue the conversation in Part II (On it's way!) with Josh and talk more in-depth about the characters and story.
