Hey, welcome to the screenwriting life. I'm Meg Lafour. And I'm L'Orian McKenna.

We are professional screenwriters. We've worked together as a team and separately.

We've worked on studio and indie films, live action and animation, from my work on Inside Out and

Captain Marvel. To my work in Pixar Story Department on Up, Brave, and Inside Out.

We are here to share our insights on the craft of screenwriting and also the lights, how to not only

survive the ups and downs but thrive. We want to help you become the best

screenwriter you can be and to reassure you that you are not alone on this

journey. Hey guys, welcome to today's show.

We took a break over the summer, but we are now so happy to be back with all of you guys.

And we really miss doing the show,

and we hope to hear from all of you on our new

Facebook page. Yeah, check in, see that we're back, we're on the Facebook page talking to all

you. Our topic today is diving in. You know it's like when you're ready to write that

great idea or you've gotten notes and need to revise your script but that first

jump back into your project or podcast can feel like jumping into an ice-cold pool.

So we're going to talk about some ways we take the plunge, but for our topic, we're going to talk about some ways we take the plunge.

But for our topic, we're going to chat about

Adventures in Screenwriting.

So Meg, how has your week, summer, apocalypse?

Summer, I know, right?

Yeah.

We've been, we've been apart.
