| 0:00.0 | Hey everyone, it's me, Ben. Thanks for listening to this episode. All about American Horror Story, the most enjoyable, craziest show that I watched in these past six months. I hope you watch them too, and I hope you are all caught up on them. This episode does contain spoilers. But where would we be if we didn't talk about the whole thing? Come on, get on board. It's been over for a couple weeks now. So watch that show, American Horror Story, Asylum, and please enjoy this podcast, this chat that we had with most of the writing staff of it. I have to thank Tim Mineer for helping me put it together. |
| 0:38.9 | The assistant on the show, Crystal, was awesome, and Katie Levine from Nerdist, |
| 0:45.0 | who schlepped over to Paramount in the rain to help me record it. Thanks, guys. In other news, |
| 0:51.3 | the Michelangelo screenwriting program is still going on. There are, I think, |
| 0:58.1 | a couple more weeks to get yourself signed up to come and workshop your scripts, TV scripts, |
| 1:02.8 | movie scripts, comic book scripts, with me and my writing partner, Ben Acker, in Italy. Why |
| 1:09.0 | wouldn't you do this? This is the best place to go and write, and it's |
| 1:13.8 | awesome, and they put you in like this little village, and we all hang out, and we talk about |
| 1:18.8 | movies and TV and writing, and nobody bothers us, and we get our work done, and you'll come out |
| 1:25.2 | of it with a really awesome script. So go to |
| 1:28.5 | Michelangelo Screenwriting.com, click on program, but more importantly, click on register and come |
| 1:35.2 | and join us. This thing is really cool. It'll happen in mid-June. You'll be back in time for |
| 1:40.7 | Comic-Con and it should be really a great experience for us and for you. |
| 1:47.3 | So that is, again, Michelangelo Screenwriting.com. In other news, check out my website, which |
| 1:56.1 | I am trying to keep up, benblackerwrites.com. I kind of take the lessons that I have gotten from |
| 2:06.5 | doing these writers panels and try to synthesize them into brief mini lessons to share with you. |
| 2:12.9 | Exactly the kind of stuff that you'll get from this Italy screenwriting program, but that will be even better. |
| 2:20.2 | So yeah, Michelangelo Screenwriting.com, Ben Blackerwrites.com, and visit atyxfestival.com. |
| 2:28.8 | If you are in Austin or if you are able to get to Austin this June, you want to be a part of this festival. |
| 2:37.8 | The past prices are about to go up. I think you can get, I think, one more week there, about $129. |
| 2:45.7 | I'm well worth it. The festival was so much fun last year and prove it looks like it's going to be even bigger and |
| 2:52.3 | better this year so get on board um and and i think they bump up the price in a week or two so atx |
