@Michael - next step is to start submitting to production companies who have a body of work in line with the type of show you wrote and have a verifiable relationship setting up those series with the major networks or streamers. You can also enter into series pilot competitions which is a discovery mechanism for these production companies and will help boost your work. Let us know how it goes!
Interesting. I was wondering about this exact thing. I tend to write long. My Story Consultant friend keeps telling me I’m building worlds. So we don’t think I can shorten those two stories. I started one in the 90s as a feature script but it got too big and expensive for a feature film. And TV was never an option for this crazy thing I wrote. Now, however, my friend said this is the time for my style of writing. That one story expanded to a short season of television. Although I do know it can go further. More recently I started another story that became a slightly smaller world but it’s still a season of television. I wrote all of it. The former is still too Epic to handle right now but the latter has manageable elements. I have a Pitch Deck, a Bible, a good pilot script, 8 episode scripts that need some work. But, the story is there. So what now? I guess you explained the what now above but, what if I already wrote the first season? Less development costs maybe. Can I still push it somewhere? Thoughts of the moment.
