So it’s pilot season.  And hopefully you’ve been going out.  And you’re reading what’s circulating.  And a few times you’re probably thinking “Eh, I could write something better.”  Do it.  So many benefits can come from writing your own material.  And learning how a story is told.  Structure.  Characters.  Dialogue.  The theme.  The debate.  All the whys.  They will help you understand where you fit in as an actor in the storytelling process.  That is if you believe your job is to tell the story and not for self-gratification.  Do some reading and try to figure out the blueprint of the pilots you’re going out for.  You’ll receive a ton of gifts you may have never come across otherwise.

– TV, Bitch!
