Ed Solomon & The Black List Launch ‘Word By Word’ To Explore Process Of Screenwriting; Lena Dunham & Susanna Fogel Set As First Guests
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Ed Solomon, film and television writer, has teamed up with the Black List to host Word by Word.
The show will broadcast live on Zoom starting Thursday, June 29. “During a strike years ago, I took some writing classes in order to challenge the way I was approaching my work,” Solomon said in a statement. “This time, I wanted to open it up for others who maybe felt the same.
This led to the idea of making a space for creatives at every stage of their practice and career to ask questions and hear others talk about things that aren’t in writing books or better taught elsewhere–in particular, things about the inner process.” He continued, “I want this series to be casual, accessible, personal, honest, and (hopefully) interesting… but most of all, fun.
I’m truly looking forward to learning from the many incredible guests who will be participating. I just hope I can shut up long enough to do so.” Solomon will be joined each week by different guests for a casual conversation about the craft and inner process of screen and tv writing that aims to be relevant to writers at any point in their careers.
