Mark Twain mini-series

Alright Writers! I'm looking for extremely talented and collaborative writers to go to work on a mini series I'm creating about the life of Mark Twain. It will be in the format of John Adams the HBO mini series from a ways back. If anyone is interested Id love to get connected. The goal is to pitch to HBO and use the same packaging and airing as John Adams, same demographics etc. I'm taking a different angle on the man and am extremely interested on his push pull between family and his hunt for adventure. His yearning for the wild in contrast to his immense love for his wife and daughters. Humanizing the legend is huge to me. Hit me up. Thanks KCB

Hey Lynn Thanks that's a terrific note, I've heard of that piece before I'll get knee deep in it. Much appreciated

Phillip E. Hardy, "The Real Deal"

Kaitlin: Definitely interested in hearing more.

Bill Costantini

That's a great ambition to attempt to realize. Huck Finn is considered the first great American novel, and the prolific Twain was truly a genius. Good luck!

Virginia Brucker

Hope Twain's sense of humor comes through along with his love of family. What an icon! Fun, and very worthwhile project. Best of luck with it.
