What does it mean to be part of a writing team? This panel will discuss the process of creating serialized fiction podcasts with multiple writers all sharing in the story creation. This panel will address the planning process, plot breakdowns, strategies for maintaining a consistent tone and voice across episodes from different writers, as well as strategies for managing the sense of “ownership” writers feel for the stories they create, to balance the writers’ need to express themselves with the needs of the show as a whole.
This panel will be live-streamed on YouTube with live closed captioning and an ASL interpreter.
