Thanks for the great interview, guys. Question for you Julia- when you said you were "also scared because the first draft was 65 pages", in what ways did it grow longer in subsequent drafts? Really appreciate all you've shared.

Hi Jon - Most of the expansion had to with character development. Adding scenes for supporting characters to enrich them. Expanding current scenes to allow the audience to learn more about the main characters. Things like that. Very rarely does it have to do with adding elements to the plot. The plot was all there in the 65 pages - I just needed to deepen and expand the characters. And now it's 90 pages, which is still pretty short :) Hope this response was helpful and thanks for your question!
