Description

We’re back January 30, 2024 with all new episodes. Sisters Jane and Mary Findlater were literary celebrities in their day and counted the likes of Henry James, Virginia Woolf, and Rudyard Kipling among their admirers. We’ll be discussing one of their joint efforts, Crossriggs, which is considered their finest work. Joining us are Hollywood screenwriting sisters Julie and Shawna Benson who worked on the CW’s critically-acclaimed series The 100 and Netflix’s Wu Assassins.Discussed in this episode:The BrontesHenry JamesVirginia WoolfRudyard KiplingCrossriggs by Jane and Mary FindlaterTo the Lighthouse by Virginia WoolfThe Benson SistersEmma ApprovedJeopardy!Nora and Delia EphronBewitchedYou’ve Got MailLord of the Rings by J.R.R.
