Not for you maybe but there's some wonderful material there for an aspiring writer. What a fantastic 'fictitious character' you'd make - you really are an inspiration. Cheers
OK well let me suggest something.
An action movie, with me and a Lara-Croft/Condoleezza-Rice character who dresses like this (well at least some of the time).
Some kind of war on terror story-line. Me, the Scottish anti-terror expert who hooks up with Condi, US special forces undercover operative, a kind of American female James Bond, for a joint mission to uncover and defeat a global terror organisation funded from Arab oil money.
In the plot we have to take out enemy jihadi TV-satellite broadcasting facilities, assassinate some Pakistani military generals secretly backing the Taliban against the West and against their own elected Pakistani government, which we do guiding in drones, and help Arab republican revolutionaries overthrow the Saudis to establish the United States of Arabia.
The end is bitter-sweet because after a romance-on-the-run Condi has to kiss me goodbye because she is needed to run for president of the United States and she doesn't need any foreign entanglements and so I go off to become Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Europe (of NATO).
