Ask Him Yourself!

Ok, my turn.

Mr Wayland, in your opinion, what is more difficult to accomplish: writing/recording a moody/atmospheric/explicit gory scene or writing/recording a romantic/erotic/intimate scene for WA/in general?

SPOILER 

Additional question: Do you have enough creativity to even imagine a possible love interest for Scratch? Or is she done with it due to what her cousin did to her?

So what does KC stand for?

Well, it's complicated, but my name is officially "Casey" on paper; however my name was given to me after my mother's initials. So the K came from Kathy, and C from her maiden name.

I prefer using Kc obviously and have gone by it since early high school. I did a bit of theater and I liked how it looked on paper and people never seemed to forget my name when it's just two letters.

But what about Grayson? How much of the story is he privvy to???


(I ask because you said on 'We're Not Dead' that you have a 'brick wall' concerning plot points, even after many drinks, so I'm trying to find a backdoor by possibly feeding him a shitload of tequila shots until he spills all the beans... ! :D )

He knows a fair amount and sits in on the writer's meetings where I go over the upcoming stuff and talk about any potential story problems. So, it's fair to say he knows a good amount, and definitely knows the ending. SO, what I'm saying is... don't try to get him drunk... ;)

Romantic, by far! It's SOOOO hard not to make those not sound cheesy. In part, I have to not only have to write the scene very carefully, but also direct it so that it comes out genuine instead of not. There's a lot of points of failure with those. Suspense, mood; that's all easy stuff.

Enough creativity for a love interest for Scratch? That sounds like a challenge! But seriously, I think that would distract from any of her current motivations. She comes accross as more of an asexual person in the current time of the story.

Ok, I have a question... Don't know if it could be considered too personal. I noticed in season one Jeramy Wayland sponsored the show and I recently heard Danny Wayland mentioned, can't remember if it was as a sponsor or a member of the team. And then there is KT Wayland mentioned in the credits, and you the creator and writer... So is everyone family or is it coincidence? O_o

Jeremy is the eldest brother, he helped sponsor some of the early episodes
Danny is the 2nd Born, he helps script-supervise on set
I'm the Third Born,
and Katie is my adopted younger sister, who helped do some of the music in the beginning.

My Dad was an old paramedic who I sometimes use for medical advice.

So, yes, I tend to drag my family into things.

Hey Mr. Kc! I have something that I really need to know and it is of utmost importance that I receive an answer within at allotted time period, but also at your earliest convenience.

What's your favourite Mexican dish?

So, regarding Scratch's proficiency with her knife and her current asexuality, he reminds me a lot of Lady MacBeth.

Act I, Scene 5.

LADY MACBETH "Give him tending;
He brings great news.
Exit Messenger.
The raven himself is hoarse
That croaks the fatal entrance of Duncan
Under my battlements. Come, you spirits
That tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here,
And fill me from the crown to the toe top-full
Of direst cruelty! make thick my blood;
Stop up the access and passage to remorse,
That no compunctious visitings of nature
Shake my fell purpose, nor keep peace between
The effect and it! Come to my woman's breasts,
And take my milk for gall, you murdering ministers,
Wherever in your sightless substances
You wait on nature's mischief! Come, thick night,
And pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell,
That my keen knife see not the wound it makes,
Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark,
To cry 'Hold, hold!'
Enter MACBETH.
Great Glamis! worthy Cawdor!
Greater than both, by the all-hail hereafter!
Thy letters have transported me beyond
This ignorant present, and I feel now
The future in the instant."

At least, my English class was not in vain.
