It’s one thing to write for different mediums, it’s another to achieve success in each one of those mediums. I wanted to find out what his secret sauce was.
Listen to hear him share the ingredients to that sauce as well as:
How he got the job for SpongeBob (a process different than most musicals).
What a bookwriter’s job really is, and how that changes with different collaborators.
Why he wrote A Very Merry Unauthorized Children’s Scientology Pageant, and how that got him into some trouble.
How an idea informs what medium you should write it for.
Just how the heck he keeps all these projects straight . . . and makes them successful!
