I have a character who realises her dreams of being a scriptwriter with her show on TV. I'm not sure how long this would take her.
Let's say everything goes really really well: her scripts need hardly any editing/rewriting, the decision-makers all say yes quickly, things go smoothly in general. What's the minimum feasible timeframe from her scripts landing on the desk of...whoever takes on scripts...to the show airing on TV? She's in the UK, if that makes a difference.
None of this is detailed in the book (it all happens "off screen" and she sudden reappears as a successful scriptwriter), so my complete ignorance of the process isn't a problem. It's just the timescales I need to get right.
Any advice appreciated!
