Last week, my writing partner and I pitched a series to a network and was told they wanted to take it into development. They said the next step was having legal reach out to our reps with the offer.
How long does this normally take? Do the networks have cookie cutter offers that they can just enter the specific details or are they draft documents.
Will my reps contact me as soon as the offer comes in or will there be a level of negotiations before they bring anything to me?
What do I need to watch out for? This is my first rodeo, and I don't want to be caught unaware.
I do have a full team: manager, agent, and lawyer. But I was wondering how all this looked from the writers point of view.
