Listen to this episode’s post-show chatter.
Whoa! Just listened to your chat with Nicole Stratton from the the Logos Theater. I’m off the charts excited!!! All I can say is YESSSSSS! Can’t wait! Nicole’s interpretations and how they will be implemented brought tears to my eyes. God is good!
I actually feel like I might rather have the job of adapting something I don’t absolutely love, though I wouldn’t want to adapt something I hate. With something I love, I’m always going to feel like the parts that come from me are inferior to the parts from the original and deeply regret any inevitable cuts. With something I like a lot but don’t adore, I could have more fun with the process.
It was interesting to have two interviewers unlike other Talking Beasts interviews where there’s only one.
