Meet Valerie, a radio talk-show hostess about relationships. She's recently been divorced. In fact she lives with her ex-husband, Mike- a local bar owner who is seeing what Valerie calls "a rebound", Megan. Megan is a magazine editor who lives next door to Valerie and Mike. The girls try to peacefully co-exist and possibly establish a friendship with one another despite the obvious obstacles that stand in their way. Valerie's two co-stars on the air are Jeff and Katie. Katie is engaged to the owner of the station, Brian. They've been engaged for a while—four years in fact and she’s beginning to lose faith. Also at the station is Gwen, who produces the show and serves as the object of Jeff's affection. However, she's not a very likable person. Gwen's a tough-talking, career-oriented woman who won’t give Jeff the time of day. On the air, they can give advice to strangers, but taking advice is a different matter. Will they ever be able to apply their own advice and use it to get out of the sticky relationship situations that they routinely find themselves in? And will Valerie be able to move on from Mike, despite the fact that he sleeps only fifteen feet away?
I had so many ideas for OTA-- so many great ideas that I thought would be great to share! So I thought to myself, why not post the OTA episodes that I have planned as short stories onto a blog. I have planned 13 episodes a "season" and as of now, there will be at least one season. So we'll obviously start with the first season. Here's what the release schedule will look like (it's subject to change) for the first half of the season:
1.01: MOVING ON (6/30/09)
1.02: FACADES (7/9/09)
1.03: IT'S HARD TO CONFESS (7/16/09)
1.04: BEYOND THE SEA (7/19/09)
1.05: FURY OF THE STORM (7/30/09)
1.06: RIGHT HERE WAITING (8/2/09)
1.07: BREAK OF DAWN (8/6/09)
So, I hope you're ready... it's a wild ride and I'm going to do my best to try and keep up with it. Remember, this was designed as a television show-- so the story might not be presented in the correct form here as short stories. But it's entertaining nonetheless! By the way, this is copyrighted material-- so don't even try me.
