To encourage literacy throughout the United States, Shadow Play Entertainment and its partners are
gearing up for a historic journey of a lifetime: to find the next big thing in publishing. They realize
that reading is not only important, but providing quality entertainment to the masses is also vital.
Introducing “The Write Stuff” (http://www.thewritestufftv.com), a new reality show designed to
assist individuals in their quest to get their work recognized, as well as network with those who have
made it in the industry.
Hosted by Creator and Executive Producer Cyrus A. Webb (Shadow Play Entertainment/
Conversations Book Club), this new project will not only encourage creativity but also provide
assistance to those who are looking to make it in the world of publishing. Airing in select cities on
the CW Channel and select My Network Channels and ABC affiliates, the show will reach millions
of viewers worldwide beginning in June 2009. After airing, all episodes will be available on The
Write Stuff TV channel on Youtube. As new markets open, previous episodes will be re-aired with
the finale airing simultaneously.
In-person and Youtube auditions were held during January 2009 and February 2009 with the
following 24 contestants chosen for Season One, among them are R. Wolf Baldassarro (Sterling
Heights, MI). Baldassarro auditioned via Youtube and was selected by the judges to compete. (You
can see his audition by visiting http://www.youtube.com/thewritestufftv.)
“The Write Stuff” will put the contestants in the faces of those who can make it happen for them in
the publishing world and those who can give them the tools they need to be successful. At stake is
the ultimate prize for those who want to make their mark in the industry: a ONE-BOOK DEAL
published by AG Press! Along with the book deal and recognition of having “The Write Stuff,” come
a brand new Dell Laptop and a prize package of marketing tools worth over $16,000. There will also
be features in Conversations Magazine (online and print), Poetic Monthly Magazine (online and
print), Crunk Magazine (online and print), and Hype Magazine, along with other publications!
Judges include up-and-coming as well as best-selling authors from across the country. There is no
doubt that this project will be one for the record books, getting national attention, as well as helping
many contestants make a name for themselves—all while encouraging literacy and
promoting creativity for those watching at home and online.
