So I’m here in LA ahead of the “MY STORY CAN BEAT UP YOUR STORY!” seminar I’m doing at The Writer’s Store on the 30th. Taking advantage of being in LA, I’ve had a bunch of meetings this week with producers, agents, managers, and executives.
Knowing that a big topic of interest at the seminar is going to be about the business of writing, I figured that I’d ask the executives I’m meeting with for their read of the pulse of the business: do aspiring writers need agents? What should they be writing? How should people go about marketing themselves and launch their careers? What’s the market for pitching like? How about spec screenplays? How important is it to live in LA?
The answers I’ve been getting have been really, really interesting and more than a little surprising. For those of you coming to the seminar, you’re going to get the most current, best information available on the business of the business. For those who can’t make it…hang tight. I’ll turn the information into something readable as soon as I can.
To learn more about the seminar or to sign up, please CLICK HERE or go to The Writers Store website (www.thewritersstore.com) and search for “My Story Can Beat Up Your Story.”
