Red Carpet Interviews: 2024 Writers Guild Awards New York (WGA)

I had the incredible honor of covering the Red Carpet at the 2024 Writers Guild Awards New York Ceremony. At the 76th Annual Awards I had the pleasure of interviewing Neil Gaiman, honorees, other presenters, actors, writers and guests as this year’s nominees in writing in film, television, new media and more are celebrated.

As a small independent journalist it was such a surreal feeling being next to large publications that I have admired for years. I am so incredibly honored to be included, and have worked very hard for a decade to make my career possible and it feels like a dream. See all my red carpet interviews below and the full list of 2024 nominees and winners.
