Part of a writing course I am doing. Trying to steer clear of foolsball. I want something inspiring and readable, not a tragic love story!

BoF, how did your anit-modern football piece go?

I am currently in the process of compiling a dossier about that. Watch this space!

How about something along the lines of a violently fierce battle fought across the years between the forces of the good minority and the evil hordes to provide a new temple of worship for the true believers who will need their temple as a haven from the ever decaying society in which they live.....add some shagging and that's a story....f*** me....I make it into a film!
