We aren’t sure what this article is telling us, but it’s all about to very important topics (screenwriting and AI), so we’re hoping you’ll read on and then explain it to us.
Yeah, we know that sounds lame, but LB believes in being open and honest with everybody so, what the hey, we’re doing just that. Maybe think of it as helping us like we’ve always tried to help you?
NOTE FROM LB: One thing I’ve learned during my long (Yikes! Sooo long indeed!) career is that unlike other so-called verities, artistic truth is for all practical purposes eternal.
In this article from 2013, one of TVWriter™’s favorite writers and even more favorite human beings, Peggy Bechko, gives us a thoughtful lesson we all need, in practical and creative truth.

No, this TVWriter™ minion isn’t all that certain of what she’s saying, but Caren Lissner, author of Carrie Pilby sure is, and it makes good as well as very helpful reading.
NOTE FROM LB: The heading above is Herbie J’s official title for this piece, but just between us, I would’ve given it a different one – “The Way Life Really Works.” Hope you enjoy Our Pal Herbie J Pilato’s most recent piece!
I’ve worked what many would term as “menial” jobs over the years, but I’d prefer to call them “meaningful.”
