WLS is running a story from 1979 that interviews from soap writers from that era, and how they constructed their shows. I thought it was an interesting read that everyone would enjoy.

This is great. Thanks, NBA! Looking forward to the rest of it. 

Thanks for letting me know...looking forward to more!!!!

You're welcome!

I would kill for any long-term story projections, episode outlines and breakdowns from the good old days to become public. I'd love to see how they look and read them, even just once!

I would too but I doubt anyone would release them. I do remember Capitol's story bible being online at one point but I stupidly didn't think to save it myself. 

Finally getting to hear from the masters!

Yeah, I don't believe they ever would, unless soaps have been dead for 20 years and someone does it  

I'm trying to remember if I ever saved the CAPITOL bible and, if yes, where....

Well if you do find it, let me know! I want you to send me a copy of it!!!
