In this insightful interview, I sit down with Kamran Pasha, a writer for Showtime's original miniseries Sleeper Cell. In it, we discuss the show and various techniques for writing taught thrillers for television. Some of the topics covered are:

* How to create dramatic tension in scenes
* How to plan out a full season arc
* How to plan who to kill off in your story
* How to craft villains people love to hate
* How to maintain accuracy and research spy techniques
* How to craft characters the audience cares about

And much more!
