So many good reasons for this change! For one, metal stairs would be an acoustic nightmare for production. But the biggest reason was simply to make the staircase much larger while still being possible to build. In the books, the stairwell is so narrow that barely two people can pass each other. That would make it almost impossible to shoot anything meaningful on them. And they would basically disappear on the screen.

Metal is better for the books. Concrete is better for the TV show. Great question!

Hey, you're more than welcome. I'm also socially awkward and anxious, so I probably saw what you were going through and felt the pain like it was happening to me.

Wow. That means so much. Thank you.

SAND is being optioned as we speak (final stages of negotiation). Hopefully the reception of SILO will make this more likely to get into the writing-room stage of things, so we can play around in that ... sorry ... sandbox.

BEACON 23 has already had two seasons filmed! It was shot up in Toronto on the most beautiful sets. Great cast. Stellar production. Should be coming out from AMC within a year. :)

Not stable (income varies month to month), but I made over a million dollars last year, which should last me for a while (as long as I cut down on the booze and whores, which I'm going to do tomorrow. Promise).

These questions are SO good! Whenever I do these AMAs, the hours disappear so quickly. Should I take my laptop to my live screening tonight and keep at this? :)
