  • Bonus Ep. 33 - Writer/Podcaster Daniel Willcocks Interview

    Welcome to bonus episode 33 of - The Stephen King Podcast - Constant and New Listeners!

    Writer, podcaster, & writing coach - Daniel Willcocks talks about his concluding book in the - When Winter Comes - series - Episode 6.

    "The forest is quaking, the storm closes in, an ancient darkness is awakened…

    The endgame nears. The storm has brought them into its heart, and in its center a secret force, long hidden, wakes from slumber. Will those whom the storm has corralled be able to take on the monsters that the world has forgotten?

    Or will the darkness take what it's owed?

    Cody struggles to come to terms with the reality of his mysterious messenger. Tori and Oscar plot their way inside the Drumtrie Forest. Alex and his charges stumble upon the very thing they thought they'd never find.

    And, Karl… Karl will do whatever it takes to ensure that his new masters are served.

    Only, the Masked Ones serve a master of their own. And he is hungry."

    Daniel Willcocks is:

    "a podcast host, a speaker, a father, an Aries, and a whole bunch of other identifiers. Mostly, I like writing stories which explore the darker side of life. My work explores the catastrophic, the strange, and the impossible. I'm known for collaborating with many of today's most successful independent authors, and it is because of all of this that I managed to leave the day job behind and make a living as an independent full-time writer—all without the backing of a traditional publishing house."
