Why They Write

Why We Write is a series of essays by prominent - and not so prominent - TV and Film writers which hopes to inspire and inform all writers during the strike, and perhaps beyond. So far most are by the "prominent" side of the equation (like Damon Lindelof and Bill Lawrence) but there are a couple of less-well-known contributors around as well.

And speaking of writers... perhaps I'll post later about CBC's The Border, which premiered tonight. I mention the show because at least one of its writers has a blog: Denis McGrath's Dead Things ON Sticks is a site I visit from time to time, and he's always got interesting things to say about the job, the product and the industry.
