Interview with G.O Parsons - Writer of Willy's Wonderland
This week on Script to Scream we bring you an interview with screenwriter and comic book writer G.O Parsons, the writer of Willy's Wonderland!!
We covered Willy's Wonderland in episode 45 of Script to Scream and that serves as a great primer for this interview. It was a total delight to chat with G.O, he was so wonderfully generous with his time and insights. We just cannot thank him enough!!
In this episode we talk about G.O's writing and how he initially got into writing. We also discuss Willy's itself and how the film got made. We discuss process, theme, diversifying your writing, taking an entrepreneurial approach to your screenplays and what it is like to work on a major Hollywood film with Nicholas Cage.
There are so many great tips for screenwriters here and we round up some of the topics we chatted to G.O about during the interview. We really hope you find this fun, entertaining and insightful and that it inspires you to get writing.
