A new article over on Script Mag featuring my discussion with Eric Heisserer, the series creator and showrunner of Shadow and Bone, and the screenwriter behind Arrival and Bird Box, about how he came to work on the show, his approach to the adaptation, how he runs the show, and world-building in fantasy.
