Shooting the Shit Live From LA! About Page to Screen and NaNoWriMo

Carly’s reporting live from Los Angeles and CeCe’s just back from a rom-com-gone-wrong trip to Ottawa (complete with flight chaos and airport bathroom glam). From bribing airline staff with books to rolling up to Netflix, the travel stories are top-tier comedy. Then they dive into Hollywood talk — what’s actually getting adapted from page to screen, why short stories are suddenly hot IP, and how TV’s craving “guys with guns solving problems.” Plus, they tackle listener DMs! Fun, funny, and full of insider wisdom — another classic “Shooting the Sh*t” from two literary pros on the go.
