Join Monica and special guest host Paul Gandy as they welcome former Fairfield resident Jessica Hawthorne-Castro to Writers' Voices.

Hawthorne-Castro was formerly a successful television literary agent for Hollywood's Endeavor Agency, representing writers, directors and producers for television and feature films. In this capacity, she assisted the creators of several top-rated TV programs, such as Entourage, The Office, Heroes, 24, and Law and Order. Jessica has since joined forces with her father, Tim Hawthorne, as the next generation of Hawthorne Direct, a Fairfield-based full-service television advertising agency.

Listen in Friday at 1pm or Monday at 8am as Jessica explains why "the writer" rules in television, how the internet is changing the rules of the game, and what it takes to make it as a writer in Hollywood.
