Thanks. I may look into those. It would be nice to get paid for writing. Been my dream for all my life. If only I didn't have this terminal condition known as chronic laziness.

Basically, I was referring to the characters. I'm a little rusty on my Greek Mythology, but Hades was the god of the underworld as I think you may have mentioned. The story I'm most familiar with is the story of Persephone, who is Hades' wife. Orpheus was a musician essentially who went to the Underworld to rescue his wife Euripides. Hades agreed to let her follow him out but if he looked back, she would be lost to the Underworld forever. And of course the nitwit looked. There's some stuff on all the characters on Wiki and there certainly has to be some sites on Mythology out there. I was very interested in it during High School.

Oh yeah of course: I already referred to Orphs and Eury in the opening paragraph. I love that story: I mean, you can feel the guy's frustration and you just KNOW he's gonna look round at the last minute. Poor guy. Came to a sticky end too. I thought you meant other than that. Yeah, I like to reference mythology and the classics just to show how well-read I am.

Any interest in it? Backers? Executive Producer? Netflix?
