| One of the best sources of writerly wisdom on the net is J. Michael Straczynski, creator and executive producer of Babylon 5 and writer of such television shows as Murder, She Wrote, Jake and the Fatman, The New Twilight Zone and The Real Ghostbusters. Joe has been on the net for many years, and has always endeavored to keep the lines of communications open between the creators and the fans, and maybe even teach us something about how TV happens in the process.
In the interests of that learning process, virtually everything Joe writes to the various nets (CompuServe, AOL, GEnie, and Usenet) is archived for posterity. I've gone through that mass of posts and pulled out the stuff that relates to writing, specifically. What I came up with amounts to a small book on writing. (Speaking of books, Joe just recently revised his Complete Book of Scriptwriting, from Writer's Digest Books. Pick it up at Amazon.com!)
