A childish scrawl

[my_daroga]

To get the taste of my last post out of my mouth, here's a question for a) writers/readers, b) Phantom fans, and c) any for whom those intersect. I think it would be a good idea to get myself writing more, even if it's not linear, that I will eventually use. I also need to build some kind of portfolio. So I have two plans:

1. Write an article for one of the cinema/horror magazines and attempt to get a byline.

and

2. Write more here for the Phantom community for my exercise and everyone's discussion.

My question for you is: What do you think might be good subjects to tackle for either? For 1, what's an angle that hasn't been taken before that I can tackle in a concise fashion? An overview of the History of POTO will only work if I can find a nice hook, and can limit it to a certain theme. For 2, what would you be interested in reading/discussing?

Yeah...something like that. Or a post with links back to it. I guess it would depend on whether you wanted to collect the info so that people could be anonymous and then analyze it, or whether you wanted to have it be openly interactive and ongoing.

Right, right. Which I guess means figuring out how I'm going to use the data. Hmm. I haven't really thought about how that part is going to read.

Or you could discuss the world of the setting and talk about 19th century Paris, Persia, and opera...IDK, I am full of random today.

That's an idea. Lots more research, too. Thanks!
