hello katrina

my name is katrina farncomb i am 15 yrs old and i am a very outgoing person. I am reali reali excited about acting and am wanting to do it as a career. I do drama in school and i find it very fun, but i am wanting to extend my acting and my drama teacher said i could go far, and recomended for me to extend my horizons and get some acting oppertunities out of school. My point is i can not make it to your holiday workshops because it is too far to travel every day from where i live, this poses dissapointment because i was very excited to go.I dont know if you could do this but i was wondering if i would ask you a big favour if you could give me some pointers, numbers of people i could contact or any other information would be greatly appreciated because i am realy excited about acting:D...thanx a bunch :)
