Book Banter S4 EP170: Josh Mendoza Interview



Menu: 



Hello Happy People,


Dianne is thrilled to bring you today's guest author, Josh Mendoza. Josh had already established himself in the film industry before he decided to add published author to his credits. Josh is an award-winning filmmaker known for his post-apocalyptic feature film, What Still Remains. Working with veteran actors Mimi Rogers and Jeff Kober among a varied and talented cast, the film earned a 90% rating from Rotten Tomatoes. 


Even with his success in film, Josh wanted to explore other creative outlets. Having earned a BA in English and creative writing from Stanford University and an MFA in Film and Television Production from USC’s School of Cinematic Arts. Josh was well prepared to take on the task of writing and publishing novels in addition to his cinematic projects. 


Shadow of the Eternal Watcher is Josh's debut novel. It is climbing up the Amazon bestsellers list and has 4.6 rating just months after it's release. Josh currently splits his time between the City of Angels and the deserts of Arizona with his wife and two children. 


Don't wait, go listen now to the full interview to hear about this author's journey from the man himself. 



Enjoy,

Dianne
