An Elizabeth Holmes-based Character Would Be a Great Heroine in an Are-regression Tale

All that pride an hubris, combined with her ultimately playing the victim, and ultimately getting knocked up to garner leniency in sentencing, she is a natural cautionary tale, isn't she? She starts manipulative, and ultimately winds up incredibly needy.

Any scenario suggestions?

As a model prisoner she is allowed to take advantage of home leave at weekends. But, in her particular circumstances, only if she manages to convince a prison officer to be her host. The Governor offers. He is a Texan and maintains discipline at home with his wife and daughters in a traditional Texan fashion. He treats her as a daughter. Poor Elizabeth....

@Geoffrey - that sounds like a great set up for a story, regardless of whether or not it was set to feature Ms Holmes! I’d read that story if ever you felt like writing it.

Alas, she would have to be "reskinned". That is, you would have to change her name.

A few years ago there were some new rules announced. For legal reason we can't use real people in stories. Which is why one of my stories isn't here - I used several real life classic TV shows, with details on the actors, and that violated the rules.

How about upon release she starts up a dominatrix business which skyrockets due to her having successfully convinced people that getting their butts beat is very good for their health and longevity? She ends up richer than ever, on the cover of every magazine as the best comeback story in decades, and even has her own stable of loyal slaves culled from the very people who once caught and prosecuted her.

I'd love reading it, too, actually. SHe'd be accepting the humiliations to get out of prison and punsihment, giving her motivations to cooperate, yet the overall arc grinds her down...

Is there are place on this site or elsewhere to collaborate with others interested in working on writing projects?

I think Storyboard might be suitable, though when Zark became popular, the Shared Worlds subsection was created for it. I suppose it would depend on what sort of writing project, and how many were involved.
