Barb and Tracie spend some time with Sarah Fain, one of the co-hosts of the Happier in Hollywood Podcast. She is also a TV writer, currently writing for the Fantasy Island reboot, available on Fox TV. Oh - and she is a knitter and a spinner!
We get a peek into Sarah's very busy life, and learn lots about what it takes to be a writer in Hollywood today. And there an abundance of laughter! We hope you enjoy our time with Sarah as much as we did.
