World Wrestling Entertainment has a position open for a creative writer. I’m getting a PhD soon in creative writing. It seems like a natural fit.
One needs to both live in or near Stamford, Conn., and also be willing to travel (supposedly for last-minute script changes?). They require three to five years TV production or writing experience which of course I don’t have. Also a familiarity with WWE superstars and their histories and narrative development. I’m no WWE PPV subscriber, but when pressed I could parlay with one about who I think should win. Er: “win.”
Against, perhaps, my better judgement I’ve applied. Will keep folks posted.
I wish I had access to your (old) old blog post about watching wrestling at the laundromat.
