I've been writing all those complex plots with detailed characterizations; adhering to formatting; detailed background stories...... not needed!!!! Burp out some short story and that's enough!!! .

I'll make a comic book, maybe just a strip, give those poor exec's a break from all that complex thinking....... https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/netflix-buys-short-story-lo...
