A friend and fellow Kossack that I've known for a few years has an idea for a reality-based "How To" show that may play well on Discovery, HGTV, perhaps even National Geographic or PBS. I don't want to give away a direct description, but it would be useful and relevant (and ~not~ a "reality show", but a show anchored in reality).
She has a lot of experience in the field that the show would be based in.
I tried to reach her to ask if she'd thought of asking folks here, but haven't been able to get in touch. So, I'm donating my daily diary in hopes that someone can provide some quality feedback. I just have to be careful not to give away any details that she may prefer to keep to herself.
The question she had was how does someone go about writing such a proposal? I did some basic Googling and checked a few references that I have, but -- knowing the reach of dKos -- I thought it would be appropriate to toss it out here.
While the show itself would not be political, the topic is one of high political relevance, so even though I'm not mentioning iy, I felt it was worth an appeal to the community.
What about it, folks? Any suggestions, resources or examples from the people who have experience crafting proposals?
