i like to think of the rescheduling as more of a positive thing, in which we now have more time to think of more questions to ask her.

IS IT MONDAY YET?!?

How did you come about being a writer for Castle?

 

Episodes are so in depth and detailed – they're just amazing!  How much research do you have to do when writing an episode?  How much research did "Mistress…" require?

How are the actor's ad libs factored into the episodes?  Is it the director, writer, producer, etc. that approves them being in the final cut?

Can we ask her if Castle plans to do anything special for Cannell's death, like dedicating an episode to him or some other way to honor him?

My guess is that tonight (Yes It's Monday!)  they will do the "In Memory" tag at the beginning or end of the episode.

And I HOPE that they incorporate his life / death inside an episode sometime – in the writers poker night.  Uncanny how we experienced Chet's death last week and now this. :(

Did you get to meet Lyle Lovett on set this week? Who would be your dream guest star? When do we get to see another Kate Sargeant penned episode?  Thanks!

From tweets of the staff and actors I think that Episode 9 was filmed on this week. May I ask about the planned schedule in the remaining part of the year? (Until what time will you film, what is the last planned episode in this year, etc.)

Kate can't' really answer questions about upcoming episodes, scheduling kinds of questions are probably best suited to someone like Andrew Marlowe – I'll try and get him on board some time but he's a tough one… busy man!

"Mistress" is one of my top five favorite Castle episodes.  Thanks so much for wiriting it.  There were so many great lines in this episode.  My personal favorite is when Beckett replies to the receptionist "Oh yes!  I have been dying to watch him squirm."

 

I was hoping you could share with us some of your background.  When did you decide you wanted to be a writer?  How did you get on the show?

Like with any and every creative industry, the writing industry is extremely hard to break into for any aspiring writer. Who gave you your first "big break" and how did you land your role on Castle?

In a perfect world, if you could work on a television show (besides Castle, of course!) or on any other similar projects, what would it be and why?

What is your personal opinion on the Castle/Beckett relationship? Do you want them to get together?

Who was your favorite character to write on "Mistress" and why?

Which character(s) are you most looking forward to see develop in Season 3?

Oh, the things you don't know about me can fill a book.

Kate, thank you for "Mistress" – it's still among my fav Castle episodes! grin
If you had a chance to write the scene when C&B kiss for the first time, how would it happen?

OK Castle, but it's accompany and observe, and not participate and annoy, got it?

Tell us a little bit about your background and transition from acting to writing.  How did you find yourself on the Castle writing staff?  And what does a writers assistant do?

Will there be a transcript of the chat, because I'm almost sure that won't be able to follow it realtime?
