Over a year ago, famed PC game creator Will Wright left his long time business home at Electronic Arts to found his new company Stupid Fun Club. While he still has an interest in game creation (he made a surprise last day lecture at the Game Developers Conference earlier this month) his first post-EA project may in fact be a TV show.

IGN reports that Wright is helping to develop The Creation Project, a TV series about the making of a TV series. Users submit ideas for a show and then vote on the favorite ones that are submitted. The winning TV story idea is then make into two half-hour episodes. Wright has reportedly created a software program called the "StoryMaker Engine" that will allow users to make storyboards for their TV series idea. IGN says the show could go live by the end of 2010.
