Bestselling author Denise Kiernan talks with "black•ish" executive producer and showrunner Courtney Lilly. Denise and Courtney start out by discussing one of their favorite topics: sports, especially soccer. They discuss the viewing of live sports as a form of narrative drama. From there, the conversation included a look inside the writers' room—both pre- and post-pandemic—musings on the collaborative creative process, eschewing perfectionism in favor of productivity and progress, and so much more. Great audience questions round out the chat. As always on CRAFT, Asheville, NC, cocktail lounge Little Jumbo created a twist on an old West Coast classic for Courtney: the “Black Manhattan.” Enjoy!
