Everyone is so worried about getting reps that they forget to engage with them.
Have you ever felt like the universe sends you the advice you need when you least expect it? Well, that recently happened to me. But instead of the universe, I think I have the Twitter algorithm to thank… which might be the first and last time I type those words.
Those of you who follow me on social media know that I am currently talking to reps to pick a new manager (and writing a huge article about it). It’s my first time not being repped in about a decade, so I have had to read my own advice about agents and managers. But sometimes it’s hard to listen to yourself. That’s when Twitter brought me to David H. Steinberg.
For the unfamiliar, David is a writer, director, producer, and showrunner. He wrote the screenplays for American Pie 2, Slackers, and is currently the executive producer and showrunner on No Good Nick, which is streaming on Netflix. He’s an excellent follow on Twitter, with advice and thoughts that can help you build your budding career, or even ask the right questions as you get deeper into Hollywood.
