Wimmens in LA! Woo!
In an earlier post today we talked about Jamie Abrams and DJ Lubel, who parlayed their viral video, THE WOMEN OF LA, into a major gig.
But as we were writing that, we realized that out-of-tunes that we are we’d never seen the damn video, let alone showed it here on TVWriter™.
The other day we realized that although here at TVWriter™ we have a natural tendency toward, well, snark and often poke a little (okay, sometimes a lot) fun at various thoughts/issues/ideas/stuff, there’s one company that we’ve never mocked in any way.
Pixar.
The following creamy goodness does a damn good job of showing why:
The inside scoop on what’s going on in the minds of television execs as the 2013-14 season rolls out. From Nellie Andreeva, who knows the score better than just about anybody:
The first new fall series, Fox’s Sleepy Hollow, premiered last week, marking the unofficial start of the 2013-14 broadcast season. A slew of new shows and a legion of returning ones will unspool over the next couple of months.
In the past, that would mean a bloody skirmish in every time slot, with one show coming out victorious and the rest in moderate or grave danger. Now with DVR and online viewing, several shows airing in the same time period can be popular. But will they all be successful?
You know, I’ve been sitting around thinking. I do that sometimes. And what I was thinking about was writers and how often I hear the expression ‘ I’m an aspiring writer’.
Now I don’t want to be nit-picky, but how did this get started? I mean really, if you write you’re a writer. After all, ‘aspire’ means “to desire with eagerness; to long or work for advancement, honor, etc.” or “to rise or to ascend” according to Websters Dictionary.
So, if you write, you’re a writer. You’re not ‘longing for” or desiring with eagerness” or rising to”, you’re doing it. Now, how good a writer you may be I have no clue unless I read what you’ve written whether novel, script, short story or copy. But you’re still a writer.
