Hi guys. I'm a writer constantly developing new ideas for stories. This is one I came up with last month and am wondering what you think, whether you think I should pursue it? Here goes... It wants to be a Drama in Three Acts, and it tells the story of two theatre owners from the 'burbs. Katie and Andy are their names. They are husband and wife. Katie is a big deal actor who seems to have it all, but when a real estate agent enters her family's life she realizes that what she really wants. What she has yearned for her whole life is being the tempress leader of a big-deal cult on a property in NSW. That's all I got at this stage. I've got my finger on the pulse and am open to suggestions, so go for it. Let me know what you think?

Before I forget: I should

Before I forget: I should add that since I don't know who said what to you, my comments should be taken with a grain of salt. I will also add that Dan, it's best to avoid controversial topics (hence me avoiding religion for the most part) unless you want to spend days in a flame war. .. Thank you for your comments about my interview. I thought I'd take a shot and see if I could get it, and was lucky. Even luckier that the person I was interviewing offered some good insights (I've interviewed people who were almost impossible to get anything out of, trust me, it's hard work). Jonathan was really nice and easy to talk to. Puppets and patterns at Puppets in Melbourne
