Alex Dyson
ARIA award-winning triple j host Alex Dyson talks to fellow YA author Will Kostakis about his debut YA novel, When it Drops. Sixteen-year-old Caleb is a socially awkward outcast dealing with the death of his father by secretly making music in his bedroom until he becomes suddenly, and reluctantly, famous. When it Drops is a hilarious and touching coming-of-age story about family, friends, fame, and the importance of never leaving your computer unattended.
This recording is available on all major podcast platforms.
