Narrator, author, and an 8Sparks Stories legend, Danielle Muething, joins us for a conversation and story. Danielle talks about how she got into narrating and the recent release of her first book, a spooky YA story about a sorority of vampires.

At around 13:44 Danielle joins us in a fully improvised tale about two sisters trapped in a stadium full of vampiric fangirls, transformed by the sinister sounds of the blood-thirsty boy band, Bro Band.

Stick around after the conversation (around 36:04) for a bonus convo where we try to guess each other's secret words and Danielle talks a little more about what she's been up to.
