STS Ch-65
“You don’t know what you want to be,” Michelle said bluntly, looking straight into my eyes. “What… exactly do you mean by that?” I asked hesitantly. She gave me a serious look. “This is just my opinion, so take it with a pinch of salt, okay?” I nodded. “You’re an actor, a writer, a director, a producer, a model, and a professional athlete.” “I’m not a professional athlete anymore,” I argued. “Neither a model.” “Yet you train every day for hours,” she…- 190.4 K • Ongoing

“Noah!” Randal Kleiser’s voice cut through the theater lobby as he strode over, his arms open wide. He pulled me into a tight, earnest hug. “It’s so good to see you!” Just behind him, Julie offered a small, familiar smile and a gentle wave. These last few days, Julie and I had been inseparable on our shared promotional tour, so her presence was no surprise. Randal, however, was a different story. As the director, he hadn’t been part of the press circuit; this wasn’t an era where…- 190.4 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-34
“You seem oddly happy today,” Sean noted the moment I walked onto the set. His voice carried that mix of suspicion and amusement that only a director could manage before a long shoot. I grinned mischievously and shrugged. “Just had a great sleep last night. Nothing else.” Beside me, Kevin Bacon let out a dramatic scoff. “Oh, really? Because from what I could hear, you didn’t sleep at all. And because of you, none of us could either.” I blinked, caught off guard, and turned to look at…- 190.4 K • Ongoing

“Hollywood ignores all boundaries of propriety.” When I picked up this month’s edition of Rolling Stone, I wasn’t prepared for the shock that awaited me. The cover was startlingly bold, almost confrontational. It featured two teenage stars of the film , barely adults, posing with hardly any clothes on. The glossy paper and oversized headline only amplified the audacity of it. As I turned the pages and took in the full spread, my disbelief curdled into anger. I was appalled by how far Rolling…- 190.4 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-46
In the end, I didn’t have to call my childhood friends over to help me out. I hadn’t expected the entire VES department to fight for a spot on my crew, but in hindsight, of course, they wanted in. “Noah.” A girl stood right in front of me, her posture rigid and her eyes blazing with determination. “I’ll be your cinematographer on this film,” she said. “That’s final.” I blinked, caught completely off guard. I’d barely stepped into the VES classroom and hadn’t even said…- 190.4 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-36
“Why are you so tense?” Jeannine asked. I was pushing my dinner around my plate instead of eating it. She leaned closer, her voice dropping to a whisper. “Still thinking about what happened on the set today?” “How can I not?” I replied. “More than that, I’m thinking about what will happen tomorrow.” The shoot with Jeannine had taken much longer than we anticipated. The original schedule was to film her scene and Laurie’s on the same day, saving the more technical scene with…- 190.4 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-37
“You look a little worried,” I said to Adrienne while we waited for the crew to finish setting up the next scene. “You weren’t even this tense when we shot the sex scene.” I’d already wrapped my part of the sequence after my dramatic death, but Adrienne still had hours to go. She was naked and drenched in sticky red paint that clung to her skin like dried syrup. I figured a joke might lighten the mood. It was apparently the wrong choice. Adrienne shot me a glare. “Of course I’m…- 190.4 K • Ongoing

“That’s a great fucking idea!” Bob exclaimed as we walked side by side through the crowded airport terminal. “It hadn’t even occurred to me that Marty’s mother might see him as a prospective lover. That’ll be a good comedic beat to add to the story.” I nodded, adjusting the strap of my carry-on. “Just make sure you don’t take it too far into weird territory. She’s still his mother.” “Of course,” he agreed quickly. “I was just thinking that I could…” He was cut off…- 190.4 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-51
I sat across from my soon-to-be agent and carefully read through the contract she’d handed me. It didn’t take me long to get through the pages. “Honestly, I didn’t expect the reason for you not signing me up to be this,” I said, motioning around at her new office, which looked nothing like her old one. And thank God she didn’t insist on representing me back then. For if she had, I would have lost out on a good chunk of my profits from the backend deal I had subsequently signed with Sean…- 190.4 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-29
I stepped into the store after deliberating about it for days. The place was quiet, almost too quiet, which made sense considering how niche the product I was after was. “Whoa,” Peter murmured beside me, spinning around slowly as his eyes widened in awe. “I think we’ve come to the right place to find you a camera.” “I think so too,” I said, equally taken aback by the rows of cameras lined neatly along the glass shelves. Every wall was filled with vintage bodies and gleaming lenses, some…- 190.4 K • Ongoing
