Making It Up with Marc Guggenheim, author of In Any Lifetime

Carter Wilson's Making It Up

Marc Guggenheim is an Emmy-award winning screenwriter, television producer, comic book writer, and novelist. He is best known as the creator of the television series Eli Stone (2008–2009), Arrow (2012–2020), and Legends of Tomorrow (2016–2022), executive producer of the animated series Tales of Arcadia (2016–2021), as well as the writer of the films Green Lantern and Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters. His recent novel, In Any Lifetime, was just released in July.

Among other things, Marc and Carter discuss how Marc got into the comic industry, the freedom in writing characters completely different from yourself and your experiences, and the intimacy of writing a novel compared to screenplays and comics. At the end of their conversation, they make up a chilling story using a line from Denver Moon by Josh Viola and Warren Hammond.
