    Pitching For Introverts: Get Out of Your Head and Into the (Writer’s) Room.

    EPISODE 63: Do you have trouble pitching? Are you an introvert and/or plagued by social anxiety when you have to present your ideas in front of people? You are NOT alone. Many of us became writers because we like to be alone in dark (but like, cozy) caves with our typewriters and iced coffees, not surrounded by smart, intimidating other writers, all waiting for storytelling gold to pour from our mouths. But guess what? If you're a writer -- especially a TV writer -- you're gonna have to pitch, babe. This episode is full of tips and tricks for how to improve your pitching skills, build confidence, and have fun collaborating with your creative colleagues.

    Rage Into The Machine: Channeling Emotions into your Writing

    EPISODE 62. In this episode, UFDP gets REAL! There's a lot to feel big feelings about right now. During fraught times, how can writers channel our anger, grief, overwhelm, and other intense emotions into our storytelling? How can we write about pertinent themes and current events without "getting too political"? Join UFDP as we discuss how to use writing as an outlet for ideas and concepts that can be difficult to otherwise express, how to bake challenging ideas into more palatable entertainment, and how we're maintaining our sanity during the dumpster fire that is 2025.
