The Pitch

[John McFetridge]

I have a new book of short stories available for the Kindle:

 

As it says on the cover, they are short stories based on TV shows I pitched to networks.

So, if you're curious what kinds of shows are, "As Not Seen on TV," here are a few adapted into short stories.

Pulp Life was pitched as a comedy-noir cable show (it has swearing and some sex) about a crime novelist who's hired to ghost write an ex-con's memoir - and the two commit crimes together.

East Coast is a police procedural about narcotics cops working the Maine-New Brunswick border (and this short story has been available on Smashwords for a while).

And Revolution is a spy story set in Montreal in 1968 with a KGB agent as the hero (which the networks I pitched it to really couldn't understand at all).

It's available here.
