In this episode, we share a conversation from our 2025 Q4 Short Drama Forum with Jenny Rosen —

Junior Development Executive at DramaBox, vertical drama screenwriter, and traditionally published author.

Jenny’s vertical dramas and web novels have generated over 70 million views across ReelShort and Wattpad/WEBTOON Studio, with her work featured in The Guardian, The Times, ITV, and Der Spiegel.

In this interview, Jenny discusses:

• How she approaches writing for mobile-first audiences
• The differences between web-novel logic and vertical-drama structure
• Why pacing, hooks, and emotional beats matter more than plot complexity
• How DramaBox works with writers and evaluates story potential
• The future of genre innovation beyond CEO romance
• The rising importance of fan feedback in shaping story development

If you want to understand how top creators craft stories for the fast-growing vertical drama ecosystem, this conversation offers invaluable insight.
