Re: How risky is this move?
I'm pretty sure I know 4 or 5, but that is besides the point. And I happily debate Hollywood with those guys on a regular basis, so if I blew a working writer off that I didn't know, ok........
If you don't like being spoken at with a condescending tone, don't speak with one in the first place.
The role of a manger is to work with the writer in a mutually beneficial manner. Yes, you help guide/advise them through the halls of Hollywood, and you do so with helping them grow their career for the long haul.
The fact that you are sitting here actually arguing against writers coming up with ideas and sharing them with their reps on a regular basis while they try and find the next viable idea to write on spec is mind boggling to me.
