We at the WGF may have hit a pause on our live events, but thanks to technology, we’re aiming to provide more access to advice and knowledge from film and TV writers while we’re all social distancing. Over the last few months, we’ve been hosting free Zoom panels about craft and all things relevant to writers.

For this session, we go one-on-one with screenwriter Caroline Thompson, the scribe behind macabre yet beloved features such as The Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, The Addams Family, and Edward Scissorhands as well as literary favorites such as The Secret Garden and Black Beauty. We’ll hear about her writing process, her approach to character development, and what draws her to specific themes.

Moderated by WGF librarian Lauren O’Connor.

Panel starts at 4:00pm Pacific time.

Space is limited so RSVP now. After signing up, you’ll receive information on how to access the Zoom panel.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at events@wgfoundation.org.

For anyone who was unable to RSVP for the panel, we will record and post it at a later date.
