Looking for a co-writer for mafia/drama - a job post by William Greenberg

About the job

Hello writers

Does anybody have an interest in collaborating on a mafia script? I'm looking to work together, sharing all ascpects of development on a project.

The biggest need is ability to organize thoughts, concepts and characters into a story. Within this genre the project must have HEART. 

I love all the same mafia
movies that most people do and the advancement of podcasting has brought a lot of
information to the table on real life figures.

I realize mafia is a niche genre.
I love the idea and I don’t want that to deter me.

The general idea is what if there was a modern supermarket that was run by all connected
people. The overall plot would be that the store is going through
a vote at this particular location to unionize.

The corporation (not connected) does not want this vote to pass while the connected
store leadership does, because the local union is corrupt as well.

Now my strength would be experience in the retail world and how this would
correlate into an interesting script. I have a lot of notes regarding the direction I want to go.

However, other than the general idea I want to collaborate on a character list, outline, treatment, and develop a script. Think Superstore meets Casino.

This would be loosely based on mafia. My goal is for the story to FOCUS on family, colleagues, relationships, emotions, interactions and behavior with "mafia" wrapped around it. 

I understand most of us are writing on the side and I expect this to take a while. 

Need somebody who can help with the other things that go along with completing a script such as:

-making yourself available for read thru's and positively pitching/talking about the script.

-taking the slings and arrows of critisicm and applying it to improve the project. 

-helping me to locate connections to pitch to and following thru on these contacts. 

-ability to help research as needed in the development of the story. 

My only expectation is to work with good people, have fun, and take this seriously. 

This is not paid. This is a "couple guys/girls getting together to try and write a script."

PM me if you want to discuss. Thanks

Bill
