Amazon Prime wants everyone to know that it’s now streaming FRINGE and THE WEST WING. (And nobody else is, nah, nah.)
These are two of the best written shows ever on TV, yet written entirely differently. Inspiring this advice to new television writers:
“Nobody’s right when everybody’s wrong.” (Some silly song lyric from back in the day.)

We could have re-edited this announcement, but we’re on the web, where we all know that whatever is quickest is best. So here’s what the Vyclone folks say about the app they released today:
Vyclone is the simplest and fastest way to co-create, sync and edit multiple videos of a shared event. Perfect for capturing all of life’s events, from birthday parties to sporting events and concerts, Vyclone synchronizes and edits multiple users’ clips to create one movie with all the angles cut together. The movie can be remixed, or edited, to the user’s liking, then shared with Vyclone’s vibrant community and other social media platforms.
Whoa. An article we totally agree with. From experience. Our thanks to Tara Mohr.
Is An Inner Argument Holding Back Your Productivity?
by Tara Mohr?Have you ever received the opportunity of your dreams and sabotaged it by not responding? Maybe you got an email about a possible book deal, or an invitation to play an incredible gig, or an inquiry from a mega-client. The dream invitation came – and to your own surprise, you ignored it. Why do we behave in such a clearly counter-productive manner?I would argue that we often do this because we’ve brought the wrong part of ourselves to the table. As creatives governing our own careers, we have to bring many different skillsets — many different selves, even — to the diverse activities we do on a daily basis. When we bring the wrong self to the table, we can get paralyzed.
Lately, TeamTVWriter has been happy dancing all over the place because the TVWriter™ site revamp has been so successful. Eyeballs! Eyeballs everywhere! (And not an optometrist on-site! Get it? Get it?)
But we digress…
There is, however, one teensy weensy fly in the ointment. An Acme Load O’New Visitors means half an Acme Load O’Peeps Who Probably Don’t Know All That We Have to Offer. Because we’re more than just hipsterish blog posts with spiffy pics of arcane people, places, things, thoughts, and ideas which, if you squint just right (there’s the eyeball thing again) can be related to our general topic of TV writing.
