We recently sat down with members of the Made in NY Writers Room - Sarah Kraus, Sofia Quintero, Bryan Parker and Joyce Wu - to learn more about their incredible experience with mentors like Beau Willimon (House of Cards).

Like with any fellowship or lab, the fellows hope to "get in the door" or be staffed in a writers room. But Made in NY gives them the confidence that having their own TV show on the air is a very real possibility.   

The Made in NY Writers Room is made up of fellows of diverse backgrounds from New York City. The fellows must meet specific application criteria, including a nomination from a recommending organization or membership in the Writers Guild of America, East. You can learn more about the fellowship here: https://www.wgaeast.org/writersroom/

After a botched bank robbery lands his younger brother in prison, Constantine "Connie" Nikas (Robert Pattinson) embarks on a twisted odyssey through the city's underworld in an increasingly desperate—and dangerous—attempt to get his brother Nick (Benny Safdie) out of jail. 

 We recently sat down with Ronald Bronstein and Josh Safdie to learn more about their new crime-drama Good Time. The writing-duo also share why they stray from traditional story-structure norms and how they use their characters to unfold the story.

 You can see Good Time on VOD and in theaters, August 25th!
