If you missed October 19th’s interview with O’Donahue’s Pub, no worries. The Pub guys archived our talk and you can find it below. After all, October 19th isn’t just a date, it’s a state of mind… Or at least that’s what Community‘s Troy & Abed tell us.
The Pub gang were a great bunch (their weekly shows cover the gamut from music to movies to web series to television). In this 25 minute interview, we talked about Epilogue, Stargate SG-1 (and my Antarctic research experiences in preparation for writing The Drift), Star Trek, and even Inspector Gadget. Since they broadcasted via Ustream, O’Donahue’s also shared the trailer for Epilogue. And in case you’re wondering, yep – we also chatted about the web series’ place in the grand scheme of the time travel trope.
Take a listen – my interview starts at 1 hour and 5 minutes in – runs for 25 minutes:
Ready to Stop Circling and Start Rewriting?
If you've got a draft and a diagnostic full of red flags, you don't need more coffee and willpower. You need a plan, a structure, and a room full of writers doing the work alongside you.
The Screenplay & TV Pilot Rewrite Workshop runs July 11 through September 26, 2026 — twelve Saturdays, 2:00 PM ET, live on Zoom. Small group. Real feedback on your actual pages, every week. A six-phase framework that moves from structural diagnosis all the way through line-level polish.
You'll leave with a rewritten script. Not a half-finished revision. A rewritten script. Registration is now open.
Ready to Build Dialogue That Actually Works?
All of this is easier said than done. (Yes, pun intended.) Which is why we do it together, live, with your actual characters.
Build-A-Dialogue is a free three-hour workshop — Saturday, June 6th, 2:00–5:00 PM ET, live on Zoom. No theory lectures. No homework. Just writing.
Hour 1: Voice. Hour 2: Subtext. Hour 3: Conflict. You'll leave with completed exercises, a Character Voice Sheet you can reference for your entire manuscript, and a Subtext Diagnostic for testing any scene in your current work. Registration now open.
If you haven’t had a chance to watch Epilogue yet, what are you waiting for? It’s a mind bender. Deliberately. We took time travel and turned it on its head. There’s no easy shortcuts and plenty of risks in this 6-part SF web series.
And in case you’re wondering, the following ‘chestnut’ from Epilogue was definitely an Easter Egg for Stargate SG-1: The Drift.
Thanks to Roger Earehart (one of Epilogue‘s writer/producers (and whose work I never tire of reading!) for setting up the O’Donahue’s Pub interview.
