Tweetstorm: Jeffrey Lieber on How a Pilot Script Works

“A pilot is a hyper-specific world + a hyper-specific character(s) + incident…”

Twitter can be a gold mine for writers. Case in point, when pro writers generate a tweetstorm about the craft. For example, the other day TV writer-producer Jeff Lieber responded to a question about how to write a TV pilot script. Reprinted here by permission.

Jeff, whose TV writing credits include Lost, Necessary Roughness,and NCIS: New Orleans, knows his stuff and is definitely one of the ‘good guys’, willing to dispense insights into the craft via social media. For example, check out his 270 tweet series on “Showrunner Rules”. Solid gold for TV writers.
