Erik Brandt døde i lørdags, efter ivrigt at have taget for sig af alt, hvad livet havde at tilbyde.Han påstod at have dyrket sex med mere end 5000 kvinder, og hans ældste datter blev undfanget på et toilet, mens dronning Margrethe og Prins Henrik sad ved spisebordet og ventede på hovedretten.Livet var vildere end vildt. Men efter hans store kærlighed døde i 2011, blev alkoholforbruget større og kostede ham næsten forholdet til døtrene Emilie og Julie.Erik Brandt var religiøs på sin egen måde, og ifølge ham selv sidder han nu og fortæller røverhistorier til Vorherre. Det er ikke alle, Herren vil bryde sig om at høre, gættede den gamle jetsetter.Vi får besøg af modeskribent og -redaktør, Lotte Tegner Freddie, der har kendt Erik Brandt i mange år.

Today on the show we have screenwriter and producer Erik Bork. Erik Bork is a screenwriter best known for his work on the HBO miniseries Band of Brothers, From the Earth to the Moon, for which he wrote multiple episodes, and won two Emmy and two Golden Globe Awards as part of the producing team.Erik has also sold series pitches (and written pilots) at NBC and FOX, worked on the writing staff for two primetime dramas, and written feature screenplays on assignment for companies like Universal, HBO, TNT, and Playtone. He teaches screenwriting for UCLA Extension, National University, and The Writers Store, and offers one-on-one consulting to writers.[Why don't most scripts have the kind of success their writers' dream of? Because of problems with the basic idea for their story. Which the writer is usually unaware of. While story structure and scene writing choices do need to be top-notch, writers tend to rush into those parts of the writing process too quickly, without vetting their basic concept.This is a mistake professional rarely make because their agents and managers insist that ideas be run past them first. And this usually leads to serious notes and development before the outlining process even starts.The Idea: The Seven Elements of a Viable Story for Screen, Stage or Fiction form an acronym for the word PROBLEM, since every story is really about one, at its core. Each chapter focuses on one of these seven deceptively simple-looking aspects of a strong story, which are anything but easy to master. Mr. Bork highlights his own struggles as a writer and his arrival at an understanding of how each of these elements works -- and how to know if one's idea really succeeds at each of them. A special section devoted to television writing (and its unique attributes) ends each chapter.Whatever your education and background in writing or story, this book and its unique focus contribute foundationally useful information not covered elsewhere -- which may be the missing piece that leads to greater results, both on the page and in the marketplace.Enjoy my conversation with Erik Bork.

A couple of months ago, I read the book - The Plot Thickens: 8 Ways to Bring Fiction to Life by Noah Lukeman. In it, I found a comprehensive list of character traits. I asked myself, “Do my favourite characters have all these traits?”. I choose Lord John Grey from Outlander to find out. I now challenge you to pick a character or two and discover how they were brought to life.

In today's episode, Glenn and I had the fantastic opportunity to chat with Award-winning screenwriter, published author, teacher, Abraham-Hicks enthusiast, amateur musician, and father - among other things - Erik Bork! Erik's opening responses of "I am not what I appear to be; I am more than I appear; and, I am not who I think I am", opened the door to an amazing, insightful conversation about spirituality, consciousness, playfulness and joy, creativity, and Erik's curiosity about near-death experiences. Erik also talked about how the Science of Mind, and Abraham-Hicks teachings have been instrumental in making his life better and helping him to create the life he wants to live. And, we got to dive into some of what Erik's book The Idea - which is currently being released as an e-course - is about; and, how his love of story and narrative is an integral part of and inspiration for his own writing, whether it be for the small screen or large. This and so much more...! Some of my favourite nuggets from this episode: Erik's use of the word "problem" as an acronym/writing tool, and one of Erik's writing tips, "Get out of the productive mindset, and get into the FLOW mindset." Plus, there's the super fun Rapid Fire Question Round at the end! A new episode posted at least twice a month!

Erik is a screenwriter who has worked on projects such as Band of Brothers, From the Earth To The Moon, and more.
