  Whoops!! Where did I get Mike from. I think I need more sleep. Sorry Katie, I bet that is the first time you have been called Mike. Consider myself duly reprimanded. Slaps own wrist.

  Very funny, But Agents - secret, I suppose - might well be on the look out for the absolute reverse.
  Agents in England must be scouring their intrays for a replacement to Foyle's war. This is a TV series about a policeman in Hastings - a seaside resort on the kent coast -and it takes place during the second world war There is no sex, drugs or rock and roll.
  As the war ended in 1945, the series ended too. But such is the popular demand, the series is to
  continue though the post war years On a sunday night too!!!

  Huh. I've never heard of Foyle's War but I'm an american Yankee so that might expalin it (or not). I doubt anyone is actually looking for the next Avatar either, but it just came to mind when I wrote the query spoof. The plot just sounds so out there, even if I had used the real names, it makes you realize how hard Fantasy must be to sell.

  Very good kd. All books hard to sell but a lot of authors seem to be turning to Fantasy. Wonder if it is any harder to get published.
  And Mike, a replacement for a Touch of Frost, look how popular that prog was.

  I think the hardest part about selling Avatar to anyone would have been the re-hashed storyline and terrible dialogue. Yet another dire film saved from oblivion by great Sfx and brilliant marketing.

  I think this really could be the next big hit! I mean, five days writing??? Why, you've spent nearly six times longer than James Cameron did on his (completely different and unrelated!) film. Obviously you're really concentrating on character and plot. Though beware, concentrating on such things may diminish your box-office returns. ;-)
  
  Though if you make it all about 'mother earth' and 'the environment' and imply that all us humans are 'evil planet killers' (So it's really really topical!), and you make it in "Super Universal Camera Kontrol(because starting with a K makes it 'cool') System 3D" you'll set the world alight!!!
