This is advice for breaking in:
Do you folks agree or disagree?
I remember Oren Uziel talking about this and how writing in a genre puts you on a list of guys who write in that genre and the more you write in that the further you move up in the list.
I think he mentioned the quoted approach as the standard approach but he took the different one and wrote in disparate genres so he got on multiple lists.

This is advice for breaking in:
Write 3 scripts in 1 genre: Not 3 scripts in 3 different genres, but 1 genre.
Rationale: It is easier to sell you to the town if you are known as an Action writer, a Comedy writer, a Drama writer, and so on. The fact is, people will put you on lists based on whatever script first gets their attention. Like it or not, this is your brand. And having a brand makes the life of managers and agents a whole lot easier to sell you and your writing services.
