Pilot Episode #1

A young woman with a passion for television finds herself thrust into the chaotic world of showbiz in this captivating debut novel. The ‘Bu \ the boo \ 1: popular nickname for California’s legendary Malibu Beach, as in Malibu. 2: the hottest teen beach drama ever to hit TV land (see inside for actual script pages). 3: a complete and utter freak show. Corliss Myers is the kind of girl who watches TV. (Alone. On prom night.) Not the kind who works in it. So imagine her excitement when her uncle gets her an internship on a TV show called The ’Bu. Little does Corliss realize that this internship is nothing like what she’d expected. Soon she’s administering to the producer’s mammoth ego, keeping bed watch on the boozy starlet, and intercepting a burgeoning romance between two of the mega-hot, mega-hormonally compromised leads. And while all this is taking place, someone—we’re not yet sure who or why—is busy keeping the blogosphere up to date with The ‘Bu Hoo—a scandalous, unauthorized, behind-the-scenes look at the making of The ‘Bu.
