Hey everyone, this is Ben Blacker, the usual host and moderator of the Nerdist Writers Panel.

Before you enjoy this special panel, which is really cool,

moderated by my pal, the great Bill Corbett,

please know that we do this every week if you're coming here new.

We have lots of great writers from television and other

things, comics and books and, you know, movies sometimes. So please, you know, give us, give us

a little bit and poke around to what you like. If there's a show that you particularly like,

I bet we've had a writer from it. In other news, if you are a writer, and I know that many of you are,

there's a great opportunity going on to come to Italy for two weeks with me and my writing partner.

We've been invited to teach a class in this program.

Two weeks of workshopping and getting your script into

great shape. It should be really cool. I used to be a teacher. My partner, Ben Acker, used to

teach the Second City Writing Program. So bring your comedy specs. We also wrote on the show Supernatural

and have developed lots of drama and comedy pilots,

so we know how to help you get your script into great shape. To find out more about this,

go to Michelangelo Screenwriting.com. That's Michelangelo screenwriting.com. And press program, and you can see what we have

planned, and press register, and come and join us. Again, two weeks in Italy, if you can't turn out an awesome script

when all you're doing is eating amazing, homemade, Italian food, and writing,

then you have no business being a writer in the first place.

Yeah, I said it. Controversial, maybe.
