A Million Ways: Guest Interview w/ Screenwriter Corey Deshon

There are a million ways to a Screenwriting career. In this episode, hosts Tasha Huo and Josh Hallman sit down with screenwriter Corey Deshon to discuss his epic Twitter thread on the many starts and stops of his writing career, and how "the slog" is part of the job description. Corey started as a Production Assistant and found immediate success in Hollywood as an indie film writer, but never quite saw his career take off despite sales and produced credits. Now a working staff writer in TV and in post on his directorial debut Daughter due out in 2021, Corey reflects on the stutter-stops along the way, and goes in detail on all those arduous steps of his path to finding a career as a Screenwriter. Hint: it involved lots of credit cards. (This episode is part of the "Million Ways to a Screenwriting Career" series, where Tasha Huo and Josh Hallman go in-depth with Screenwriters of all walks of life to discuss the unique way they became a working Screenwriter.)   Find Corey Deshon: @CoreyDeshon  Questions/Comments: [email protected]  Edited by Paul Lundquist Music by 414beg
