Pete’s not wrong. As someone who benefited from queries and from the Nicholl, I wouldn't go so far as to say that you're wasting your time. 1/ #ScreenwritingTwitter
Disclaimer 1: Times have changed since I was entering contests and sending cold queries. Yada yada yada. But they haven't changed. Not really. Hollywood needs product and writers. 2/

1) I realize there are numerous venues these days for streaming series & HBO etc thus writers have to dream up gobs of plots to fill out the menu on numerous streaming platforms. Can I make a suggestion? Try not to take an already thin plot line and stretch what should be told
2) in 4 or 5 episodes into 8 or 10. Thereby padding it out with flashbacks, scenes that seem interminable or redundant to maintain the storyline etc. When I run across this type, I lose interest quickly & don't even finish the series. #ScreenwritingTwitter
