The saying is - when you’re ready, they’ll come looking for you.

If you approach them, then the dynamic is that you work for them - which is false.

Focus on the writing. Put things in the blacklist. Meet producers.

No one is gonna come looking for you if they don't know you exist. Subscribe to imdbpro, look up the agents and managers who wrote scripts that have similar draws to yours (audience, genre, etc.) and cold email them. Look up the writers themselves on social media, ask them for advice (clarify you're not looking for free coverage or anything like that). Don't put anything on blacklist that no one else has looked at and given you feedback on. Enter the Nicholl fellowship (same rule applies).
