You know the saying “the more you learn, the less you know?” Well, holy crap, does that apply to me and TV.
As you know, my Esme novels have been optioned for TV, first by an executive producer (Barry Josephson) and then, additionally, by a studio (20th Century Fox). This is what people in the business generally refer to as Very Good News. Subsequently, a veteran writer, Daniel Voll, was hired to punch out the pilot script. The plan, as I was told, was to have the script ready for February so it could be pitched to the networks.
