How do you become a television writer? What does it take to create your own show? Did the writers of Lost really have a plan, or were they making it all up as they went?In a career spanning far longer than he cares to admit, Javier Grillo-Marxuach has not only written for some of your favorite (and not-so-favorite) shows - from the Emmy Award-winning Lost, to Charmed, Medium, Law & Order: SVU, and sea Quest - but also worked as a network executive, created a comic book that became a cult television series, co-hosted a popular podcast, and contributed essays on the entertainment industry to such publications as The Los Angeles Review of Books, io9.
com and Apex Magazine.
Collected for the first time, Grillo-Marxuach's occasionally far-too-revealing essays offer a true insider's look into the good, the bad, and the frequently bat-guano insane inner workings of the entertainment industry.
If you have ever wondered how shows actually get on the air, how it feels to win an Emmy Award, and why a grown man would have to swear off watching Star Wars for an entire year, then this irreverent collection is not only the book you want, it's also the book you need Javi is willing to open up the hood and tell you exactly how it's done.
if it is your ambition to be a writer -- or any kind of storyteller, really -- reading this book will not just entertain you but spare you some heartache and headaches as you embark on this magical, heartbreaking, brain-melting path.
-- from the introduction by Maureen Ryan, TV Critic, Huffington Post.

Platforma de publicare independentă CreateSpace a fost un serviciu de autopublicare pentru autori independenți, cunoscut în primul rând pentru că îi ajută pe autori să publice și să distribuie cărți tipărite la cerere.
CreateSpace și-a schimbat serviciile la Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP).
CreateSpace și KDP fac ambele parte din platformele de autopublicare ale Amazon, iar autorii pot folosi KDP pentru a publica și distribui atât cărți electronice, cât și cărți tipărite.
Prin KDP, autorii își pot crea, publica și distribui cărțile la nivel global, ajungând la cititori prin rețeaua vastă a Amazon.
Dacă sunteți autor sau aspiră să publice o carte, poate doriți să explorați Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) pentru nevoile dvs.
