Description

Once you know how to write an impressive television pilot or spec script, how do you get into a TV writers' room as a Staff Writer? It starts by realizing that excellent material alone can't guarantee you entry and by embracing the mantra "If you want to succeed in TV, writing is only half the battle." This first-of-its-kind book teaches you the other half of the fight: the non-writing factors that are critical for your success. These include social elements, from crafting your personal story to networking; the shrouded paths to agents, Showrunner meetings, and writers' rooms; and ways to navigate politics and thrive as a Staff Writer on a show. Sharing candidly from the experiences of the author and scores of other writers at all levels, this indispensable guide will give you the information you didn't know you didn't know, and the formulas you need to generate victories and become a working TV writer—just like so many other writers who've already used the advice in these pages to get staffed on hit shows. Told in an authentic, humorous, and honest-yet-inspiring manner with countless true stories and examples, this thorough guide/reference book/textbook is elegantly designed, printed in full-color on premium paper, and has samples of every document a new TV writer could see and needs to know. It’s a book you’ll come back to over and over and is the smartest investment you could make on your journey to becoming a working television writer!
