Ep. 269: A Reality Check & The Writing Process Happier in Hollywood

This week, Liz and Sarah have a reality check for aspiring TV writers. From making less money to doing free work, the business has gotten even more brutal. Their advice? Follow your dreams, but know what you’re in for. In Take A Hike, Liz and Sarah talk about the importance of work traditions—how they mark milestones, help them bond, and make hard work more fun. Next, in The Craft (& Fain), they answer a listener question about the writing process on Fantasy Island. Finally, this week’s Hollywood Hack will elevate your summer adventures—challenge yourself on vacation!
