I learned a lot during my rise through the TV writing world and I've shared it all - the good and the bad - in my book.

It's just one of many different tools I would use to push my career forward.

In my book, BREAKING INTO TV WRITING, I wanted to only give the most helpful, practical information to up-and-coming TV writers, like...

5. A time of opportunity for up-and-comers. Unfortunately, many have called it quits in the last few years, but that has made space for those coming in.

For anyone looking to write for TV, my book, BREAKING INTO TV WRITING, is available now.

4. More major, big-budget tentpole TV shows and more acquisitions of independently produced productions (like Netflix did with Tires). Not much in the middle.

2. Lots of exec turnover. Three streamers we pitched to had just replaced their development execs, or they were fired within a month of us pitching to them. This is setting the stage for...

3. Mergers. During times of scarcity, the major studios, networks and streamers start to buy each other up.

This list was made by The Atlantic, who found movies and TV episodes were scraped from a subtitle transcription website.

What do you think should be done about the intellectual property being used without permission to train AI?

I wrote my book, Breaking into TV Writing, to show anybody can break in and that writing ability has far less to do with it than you think.

Don't avoid your dream because you think you don't have "it." There is no "it."

There is trial and error and perseverance.

My publisher and the company the book was sold to ended up hiring the voice of animated Superman as the narrator. His gravitas matched with my rambling sarcasm is a perfect combo!
