TV Pilots and Episodes
This pages is for stories and/or scripts that would make a good pilot
episode for an episodic television show and subsequent episodes. A pilot
should introduce characters and the general situation, perhaps showing
how the characters get into a setting or situation. A pilot may be a full
length movie or the same length as a single, subsequent episode, but most
are longer than the subsequent episodes. Generally, certain conflicts or
problems encountered by characters are solved before the pilot ends but
the basic situation is not depicted as terminated. In the pilot for Star
Trek, for example, the story resolves the problem involving Captain Pike
but the Enterprise and Captain Kirk do not end their mission.

Are you an artist?
If you are an artist, professional or reasonably talented amateur,
I would be happy to have you display your work here in the form of an illustration
or two for a script or story. Upon request I will also include your copyright
notice and your email address where persons may contact you if interested
in seeing more of your work. All I ask is that the illustration be clearly
related to the story or script to which it is attached. The best approached
would be, I think, to submit a series of three to maybe ten illustrations
that all go with a single story. Please send such items to my email address
or post them somewhere privately and let me know where to download them.
Email attachements sent from totally unidentifiable sources that I do not
recognize will not be opened due to the risk of viruses.
Are you a photographer?
The invitation to artists above applies to photographers, computer animators,
and anyone with appropriate, relevant materials.
Comments Welcomed
Comments, constructive criticism, variations, and the like are welcome
for all of my TV Pilots or Episodes. I may even post such items following
the script unless the sender requests other wise. All comments will be
posted anonymously unless the sender specifically requests otherwise. Naturally
I prefer enthusiastic, glowing comments that compare me to the greats (I
am referring to people like J. Thicket, Kaol, D Lodoski, etc., not Hemingway
and Poe) but negative comments are accewptable too. (The negatives just
go into the file marked 'meaningless drivel' instead of the one that says
'literary reviews.' Comments concerning works by other authors will be
accepted for posting only if that is acceptable to the author, in which
case the manuscripts will be followed by a notice saying "Comments Invited."
