Running With My Eyes Closed
http://jillgolick.com
Running With My Eyes Closed is all about writing for television and writers of television. Focused on craft, the blog gets into the nitty gritty of episodic structure with a particular focus on pilot scripts. We frequently cover the scripts and pilot episodes of projects before they are broadcast. We attend lots of conferences and bring you first hand accounts of what television writers and showrunners have to say about the day to day business of working on a series. We look for screenwriting resources and inspiration all over the web.
