Synopsis

You're an underpaid civil servant who dreams of chucking it all to become a famous author. You live with your overbearing mother who always seems to interrupt when you're writing a key scene. Your imagination is dark, your inspiration the terrible things that can happen to a young woman traveling alone . . . . Your terrifying short story about a horrible murder on an underground train is about to be published. Even better, it will be made into a movie. A pretty young journalist is pursuing you. Except. You've been fired. The journalist wants an interview, not a date. The film's director wants you to make a few changes in your story. And, worst of all, your imagination has run dry. You'll just have to kill someone new . . .
