“You’re lucky to even be considered for this role,” Paige said over the phone. “Of course,” I replied with exaggerated sadness. “Why would they consider this poor nobody?” “Don’t take it the wrong way,” Paige quickly explained. “I’m not doubting you. It’s just that the number of superstars they considered, and who turned it down, is too many to count.” “It says a lot about the quality of the film that so many superstars passed on it,” I joked. “True,” Paige…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

“Ms. Schaffer will see you now,” Claudia’s assistant said, gesturing toward the office with a no-nonsense look in her eyes. I rose from my seat in the waiting area and walked toward Claudia’s corner office, enclosed by a massive glass wall that gave the place a very professional and chic vibe. I remembered having a similar office during my days working for a big firm in my first life. Times had different now, of course, but the atmosphere was exactly the same. The only real difference now was…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

“Tell me honestly, kid, did you really write it by yourself?” Al Pacino asked, wonder creeping into his voice as he studied my face. I nodded, a grin spreading across my face. “Of course. I just had this idea while I was writing my first script. I made a few major mistakes in it, which meant I had to do some serious rewrites. At some point, I started wondering what it would be like if I could go back in time and do it all again. Then I thought, what if I made another mistake the second time too? I…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

“You look tired,” said Michael Thorpe, my lawyer, his brows knitting as he studied me across the table. The conference room was quiet except for the soft hum of the air conditioner. “Everything alright?” “Yeah,” I replied, brushing off his concern with a wave of my hand. “Didn’t get much sleep last night. Nothing worth worrying about. Just tell me how the contract signing went so I can be on my way.” Michael chuckled under his breath and clapped a reassuring hand on my shoulder.…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

I didn’t know what I was expecting when I drove over to Michelle’s place, but it definitely wasn’t the small, one-bedroom house with an adjoining studio. It was located just outside New York City, not too far from my place. The house was neat but could’ve used an upgrade. The fact that a big-shot casting director like Vic Ramos recommended this place to actors made me realize one thing about the profession: acting fucking sucks. For most people, at least. Unlike other coveted careers, acting…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

“I want to make a feature-length film for this year’s assignment,” I said, keeping my voice steady as I sat across from my film teacher. “I’ve got my own camera and sound equipment that I brought with me to Harvard, so that part shouldn’t be a problem.” Mr. Gardner leaned back in his chair and inclined his head, considering me over the rim of his glasses. “Usually, students go for the two short films. Ever since this class started, only one student tried making a thirty-minute film…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

“Right,” I said with a slow nod. “I’m not very good with money or numbers, so I’ll have to ask my lawyer to go over it with you, or with someone else from Columbia, at a later date.” Frank Price’s smile widened, as if he had just uncovered my excuse for what it was. If I hadn’t offered that line, he would have pushed me to sign the contract immediately, and I was in no mood to create unnecessary friction. “Was that all on your end?” I asked. “Just one more thing,” he…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-5
As soon as I heard the name of the film, I recognized it. I had seen the original version, and it was…terrible. There’s no other word for it. The plot revolved around two young teenagers stranded on an island, with little to no clothing, skinny-dipping, falling in love, making love, and eventually having a child. The man who wrote the story must have been a pedophile to conceive such a plot. The same could be said for anyone who wanted to make a movie about it. The acting by the two leads was…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

I was back in the pool, or as I liked to think of it: home. It had been hours since I’d arrived, and I’d already practiced all four strokes a professional swimmer must master. It was getting late, and with no one else around, I decided to have some fun. I floated lazily in the water, aimless, simply because I could. I didn’t have to keep moving or control my breath like others might. I just extended my limbs and stayed afloat as if an invisible pool float rested beneath me. After a while, I…- 165.3 K • Ongoing

“If markets are supposed to aggregate information, then a lot of what we call market failure looks more like an information failure. The price is wrong because the knowledge behind it is incomplete.” I finished answering the question my economics professor had posed to the class, one that no one else had managed to satisfy him with. I wasn’t entirely sure this was the response he’d been fishing for, but I knew one thing for certain. Everything I’d said was factually correct. “Perfect!”…- 165.3 K • Ongoing
