Stareable.Com and the New TV Paradigm

EDITOR’S NOTE: We at TVWriter™ don’t often promote new web ventures because doing the best it can for our visitors and accepting paid advertising for other sites just don’t mix as far as we’re concerned.

But there we were, a few weeks ago, looking around the interwebs for an easier way to find a web series or two or two thousand to watch, and we found a site that totally knocked us out: Stareable.

We reached out to its head honcho and invited him to tell everybody who comes to TVWriter™ what it’s all about. Here’s what he had to say: read article

The University of Tomorrow – Today

by Larry Brody

Brace yourselves, online learning-about-writing fans, because I’m here to announce some changes in the TVWriter™ Online Workshop, um, thing.

Our various workshops, operating under the collective name of TVWriter University, have been up and running on the web, with occasional forays into the Real World (remember the various Brodystock Summer Intensive Seminars and the Secrets of the Writers Room held at the original Cloud Creek Ranch in Southern California, in Las Vegas, and even in Arkansas?) since 1999 or 2000.

Peggy Bechko’s First Appearance on TVWriter™

by Team TVWriter™

It has come to our attention that 2016 has been Peggy Bechko’s fifth year of writing for TVWriter™. Her first appearance here was September 23, 2012, and inasmuch as we’ve already missed four anniversaries of  one of our 3 most popular contributors, we’ve decided to rectify that situation right now, before we, you know, forget.

Here then is something we think everybody will enjoy: Contributing Editor Peggy Bechko’s first TVWriter™ column, almost exactly as it appeared on what was for LB, Munchman, and so many thousands of TVWriter™’s regular visitors, a singularly wonderful day.

Happy Anniversary(ies), Peggy! read article
