Dory LIVES! Abby Hanlon Visits The Yarn

January 28, 2024 by Travis Jonker   Leave a Comment

Travis: When I came across the cover for CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT YOU, the sixth book in Abby Hanlon’s beloved Dory Fantasmagory series, I was surprised – I thought the series had ended.

But to the delight of me and scores of readers, Abby Hanlon is back from a hiatus and making Dory books again. In this episode I talk with Abby about her decision to keep the series alive, and she takes us behind the scenes of how these hilarious books are made.
