Dear Mr. Stanley,

I have recently authored to completion a comical science fiction/fantasy screenplay entitled Waking Destiny. I hope you will consider taking the time to read it. It is my earnest hope that you may be able to offer guidance toward the direction of publication and ultimately the sell of the work to a major American publisher.

This work blends literary aesthetics with a dark abstraction of science fiction/fantasy world building, and it will appeal to the same audience that has made best sellers of works by Kurt Vonnegut, R. A. Salvatorie, and Frank Herbert.

There are independent but intertwining subplots revolving around the influence of the universal precepts that govern nature and technology as it pertains to the actions and reactions of the known universe. These principles are realized in various eras through the mental disabilities and addictions of its lead characters.

The predominate theme in the screen play is the life force of a goddess named Gaia who is the source of all balance, and is the impetus for creation as well as the catalyst for the beginning of evolution and adaptation. Subsequently, there are multiple conspiracy plots to attempt the removal of her spirit from the nature of life both from entities in the future as well as the established pillars of the past.

This is actualized by the utilization of multiple strong characters that are derived from the influences of high philosophy such as the works of Frederich Nietzche, Goethe’s Faust, Schopenhuaer, as well as many other existential paradigms.

In the end these interwoven personas will collide with fierce intensity in the mind of a chemically imbalanced young girl named Destiny. Near catastrophic events that could destroy all but the most prized virtues that form the infrastructure of the Earth’s Gaiatic core belief system are eminent.

You are the first person I have approached for a public reading. As a former student at Lamar I thank you for taking the time to consider Waking Destiny.

In respect,


Forrest Jones
