Former DAYS Writer Tom Casiello Speaks

Recently released DAYS OF OUR LIVES writer spoke to Soap Opera Network about writing in daytime and his hopes and wishes for the future of soaps.

"I've never seen anyone who can churn out story like Hogan [Sheffer]. It's jaw dropping. I remember when he got hired at "As The World Turns," he wrote a two hundred page long story that took us 18 months to tell - beginning with Carly/Craig's return in Hong Kong and ending with Julia being found out as Barbara's would-be killer. Single-spaced. Almost down to every line of dialogue. When he's allowed to, he writes these wonderful umbrella stories that are so interconnected, and so rewarding for a viewer who watches every day for a few years."
