      DOS Ch-229 Cover
      by Fable Weaver “I knew you were lying, Helen.” Betty smiled viciously, keeping her voice low enough that no nearby adults would overhear. “You don’t know any celebs, let alone Harry Potter.”Helen’s hands curled into fists at her sides. She hated Betty. Betty was the one who had told everyone at school that Helen was lying about Troy being her brother. And the worst part was that she had no way to prove otherwise. No pictures. No home videos. Nothing to show the world that her older brother was actually…

      by Fable Weaver The Hollywood Reporter – ★★★★☆ – Carina Chocano: “A deliriously funny coming-of-age riot that somehow balances dick jokes with genuine emotional depth. Troy Armitage proves he’s not just a dramatic powerhouse—he’s a comedic revelation. The script is the soul of the movie. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the writers are the true hero of the movie.”Variety – ★★★★★ – Mick LaSalle: “ isn’t just super good—it’s super great. A raunchy teen comedy with a heart, the film…

      DOS Ch-216 Cover
      by Fable Weaver I stood inside the semi-truck just as a crew member opened the door. I leaned lazily against the side, a determined expression on my face as I fired continuous shots at the car speeding beside us. I wouldn’t have been so lax about safety if they hadn’t secured me with ropes to the other side of the truck. Thanks to that, there was no risk of falling out—even if I wanted to.The gun in my hand was, as usual, a fake. It just emitted flashing lights—no actual gunshot sounds. Those would be added in…

      by Fable Weaver May 2007, New York City, NY, USA“Woah, this is crazy, Benji,” Oliver called out, clearly impressed as he ran a hand along the gleaming side of a silver Aston Martin. “Who would've thought you’d own one before your 20th birthday? And all because you were obsessed with another boy all these years.” He turned to Sophia with a smirk. “Talk about repressed homosexuality.”Sophia laughed, as if Oliver had just delivered a punchline. She leaned into his arm. “You’re too funny, Oliver.”Benji…

      by Fable Weaver Stephen Daldry looked around the set, and sure enough, the atmosphere was quite cheery. It usually was on the last day of filming.All scenes involving other actors had already been shot, with the sole exception of this one, featuring Troy, who had only just returned from promoting his new movie and album.“So this is it, huh?” Connell, the first AD, remarked idly as they all waited for Troy Armitage.“It is,” Daldry agreed. “I have to say, it’s been a unique experience shooting this show. And…

      by Fable Weaver James Cameron was undoubtedly the biggest film director in the world. Not only did he make and , he also made , , , and . It was such a shame that, in my adult lifetime, he would dedicate himself solely to and its sequels.Initially, I had wanted to invest in the film series, but Fox had put their foot down. Apparently, they already had all the financiers they needed, and no one was willing to let me buy them out. They were all hoping for a miracle similar to Titanic, so no one wanted out. With that…

      by Fable Weaver April 2007, Los Angeles, CA, USA“I'll tell you why.”I looked from Evan to see Dad standing a few feet away with a neutral expression on his face.“They’re jealous of you.”“All of them are jealous of me?” I asked incredulously. “That doesn’t make much sense, Dad.”“Of course it does,” Dad said, emphasizing each word as he sat across from me. He then looked at Evan and added, “First of all, let me assure you, Evan, the film was edited masterfully. The way you built suspense and…

      by Fable Weaver Krissy stuck her head out of the line and immediately paled. It was too long.“We’re fucked,” Zoe moaned, echoing Krissy’s sentiment. “We’re in this only because of you, Krissy.”“Hey! I resent that!”“You should,” Zoe shot back. “I don’t ask for much, but when I call you near midnight and tell you to do something the next day, you do it. I mean, you go on vacation and ask your best friend to book an early Troy Armitage album, and she sleeps through the entire day.”Krissy sighed.…

      by Fable Weaver February 2007, Los Angeles“I hate you,” I said from the backseat of my limo—this time driven by one of my personal security guard/chauffeur.Scarlett’s grin widened before she hugged me. “No, you don’t.”I couldn’t deny it. Scarlett was so adorable, I couldn’t hate her even in my dreams. But there was one guy I could hate.I pulled away from her and turned to face her accomplice in this terrible prank—who, up until that moment, had a smile on his face. As soon as our eyes met, the smile…
