We are thrilled to have Adam Kolbrenner – Founder of Lit Entertainment Group on the podcast. Adam is uniquely qualified to speak about buying and selling in the Hollywood marketplace from his varied background as an agent, manager and producer. Adam also has the distinction of being the top representative (manager or agent) of all Black List screenwriters cumulative in the history of the annual Black List. Kolbrenner has distinguished himself in discovering new voices. On the Lit management side, Kolbrenner represents top creators and filmmakers in the industry.   This is the episode where we discuss his dual roles in management and producing and how one enhances the other.  It was a engaging conversation where we spoke about the importance of being true to yourself and picking your writing lane.  Oftentimes, Los Angeles is still the place to hang your hat for feature and television work. We also talk about how managers scour the world for great, underrepresented writers and then grooms them before launching their scripts out to the world. We find out what's sellable, how managers find the best teams to surround their clients, identify the right buyers and why hobbyists need not apply. Take a listen to Adam's advice for casting aside illusions and embracing the "blue collar job" reality of the writer.  We chat about how writers are busting their butts, always generating ideas or listening to studio pitches.  Most of all, we hear about Adam's love for discovery, deciphering of what is unique and telling stories in a different way.
