The writing team known as Imogen Kealy stepped into the Interrogation Room to answer a few questions about their writing, craft, and co-writing partnership. Comprised of American screenwriter Darby Kealey and British novelist and television director Imogen Robertson, their first project is entitled LIBERATION, and it details a part of the story of real-life WWII hero Nancy Wake. Darby and his producer first found Ms. Wake’s story and he composed a screenplay which is currently being adapted into a feature film by Academy Award winner Anne Hathaway. In addition to discussing craft elements essential to screenwriting and concise creative works, our conversation touched on a number of topics relevant to every novelist who wants to turn their words into market success. This is among the most informative episodes of this podcast, and you'll notice the bias for Nancy and her story. In this episode, Imogen, Darby, and Gavin Reese discussed co-writing partnerships; critical elements of fiction and screenplays; the accuracy demanded of historical fiction and thrillers; and their hopes that writers help pay tribute to more under-sung heroes like Nancy Wake.
