Interview: Debbie Moon

As part of my series on writers and filmmakers who on the front edge of making their mark in the business, recently I interviewed Debbie Moon, U.K.-based writer-producer who created the TV series “Wolfblood.”

Here are the two parts of that Q&A:

Part 1: “While glancing along a line of books, my eyes skipped from ‘wolf’ in one title to ‘blood’ in another and put them together. Okay, I thought, that’s interesting: what’s a wolfblood? Kind of like a werewolf, probably, but different… And suddenly I was rushing out of the store to find a pen and paper and write down all the scenes and characters popping into my head!”

Part 2: “It’s all about the idea. Finding an idea that will generate stories week after week is very, very hard! It’s partly about finding a theme that can be explored in many different ways, with different guest characters, and which creates problems that don’t have a single easy solution.”

Please stop by comments to thank Debbie and ask any questions you may have.
