New Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (kaj33): What I learned writing for VeronicaMars
? Others expressed excitement that I would bring a diverse perspective to the show. I did campaign hard for more characters over 7 feet tall, but their systemic prejudice kept most actors between 5-foot-1 and 6 feet .
Despite that, being in the writing room proved a challenge. I knew the other writers would treat me with courtesy because of my basketball career. But would they respect me as a writer, which was more important to me? Plus, I was used to being the leader on any team I was on. Raymond, a college professor for 40 years, was also used to being a room leader. Now we were the least experienced TV writers in the room.
This was our team, and if there's one thing I'm an expert on, it's teamwork. I quickly learned that our role was to help Rob realize his vision. As Veronica's creator, he knew her character, her voice and her world best. Whenever I doubted his vision, he reminded us all with his exceptional memory of all things Veronica.
