This week, Brooke is out of the country, so we’re bringing back one of her favorites from the archives: a conversation with her dear friend, screenwriter, and novelist, Gary Whitta. Brooke and Gary have been friends since the ‘90s when they were gamer kids, and Gary was the head editor of PC Gamer Magazine. Since then, Gary has become a hit screenwriter, with movies like “Book of Eli” and “Rogue One” part of the “Star Wars” franchise. Gary is also a successful novelist. Gary and Brooke talk about their experience in gaming, and Gary gives us a detailed look into what the writing process is like for the screen and books. And, of course, how all this ties into pop culture. IT DOES.
