of the right people? I have been working on a concept for a story that I believe would be a great Netflix style series with multiple seasons.

Where do I start?

This isn't the right place to ask for that kind of advice. No offense. Good Luck

I am not sure the order of operations but I would think trying to join the Screenwriters Guild would help. Also being a chick that's gay would be a big step to getting it made.

Screenwriter here. There are a couple hosting sites like sellingyourscreenplay.com and SS screen play submissions. INktip. Black pages.
Selling a show is extremely tough. It takes a lot of connections and buy-in from people at every level of the flag pole.

Traditionally you start by pitching it to an agent, but the big offices like CAA are closed off to cold queries, so you have to know someone.
Wish I had better advice. I'm fighting the battle at the moment.

Some thought leaders think the future is making micro shorts with your phone directly to social media and going viral, showcasing your ability.

Feel free to DM me with more specific questions.

Sorry, man, but someone beat you to the punch already. By like 40 years or so.

If it's up to the rafters in DEI nonsense, you could hit up known race pimp Franklin Leonard's The Black List.

You’re going to have to suck a **** or have sex with a 80 year old Hollywood executive. Let us know how it goes.
