Ever get an e-mail from me? Remember how it was signed?
Right, same as my posts on the TVWriter™ Message Board and most of my articles on this blog:
LYMI,
LB: Shit! They Stole My Signature…um…Signature. Shit!
Users’ Guide to ANIMATION on TVWriter™
Redundant but necessary verbiage:
TVWriter™ is more than just daily posts about TV, writing, and the collected obsessions of those of us who work here? It’s also the longest running, most complete site about the ins and outs, both creative and economic, of television writing on the web. We’re talking contests, workshops, and page after page of info based on Larry Brody’s 30+ year long career.
Peggy Bechko: Writers & Readers’ Responses
The reader’s response is not something a writer might necessarily focus on when he or she is writing. More likely is the focus on character, plot, action and putting it all across.
Still, that reader’s response is something we all need to keep tucked away at the back of our minds when writing. Something that seems perfectly okay to the writer might really throw a curve for the reader.
Open Writing Gig…
…For what probably will be a highly controversial, albeit low-rated, new miniseries:
Sequel to Controversial 2011 Miniseries ‘The Kennedys’ in the Works – by Team TVWriter Press Service
ReelzChannel and Muse Entertainment are working on a sequel to the 2011 miniseries “The Kennedys,” with the follow-up expected to be structured as an eight-episode program, like the original, reportsDeadline.com.
The sequel would be based on the book “After Camelot,” which was published earlier this year. It would pick up after the 1968 assassination of Robert Kennedy.
Kathy Sees WALKING DEAD and HOMELAND
And explains why she’s not gonna watch either of them again.
My #2 and #3 shows, Supernatural and Criminal Minds, are getting long in the tooth (and short on fresh ideas), thus I’m compelled to find a couple more shows to latch onto while these take a nosedive wind down their last seasons. My #1 show, Sherlock, isn’t coming back until next year. I’ve got to find my TV crack somewhere. So I decided to try two of the hottest shows around, Walking Dead and Homeland. Guess what? I’m still looking.
First, WD. Not much to say here, considering I couldn’t get through the first episode. I did learn that I don’t like zombies, and this show is too gooey for me. I’ve already been called on the irony that I’ll watch Criminal Minds (creepy in it’s own right) like it’s my job, but not WD. I can’t explain it, other than if the BAU starts dealing with the zombie apocalypse, I’ll bow out. My daughter, who watches WD like it’s her job, recommended I read the books. I think I’ll heed her advice.
