      DOS Ch-356

      DOS Ch-356 Cover
      by Fable Weaver — “This year’s award season, which leads up to the Oscars, just took a confusing turn,” the man on the TV said with a smile. “The Golden Globes, which open the season, were heavily skewed in favor of the biggest movie of the year, . With the exception of two acting awards in the Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor categories, the movie won every award it had been nominated for. The same trend followed at the Critics' Choice Awards, where, once again, the last Harry Potter movie swept the awards,…

      DOS Ch-355

      DOS Ch-355 Cover
      by Fable Weaver — Channing Tatum, or as he liked to be called, Chan, looked at the set he was visiting for a very important meeting, probably the most important of his career so far. He had always thought his acting career would be over as soon as news about his past got out, but somehow he had persevered, thanks to small indie films. As time passed, though, studios were giving him fewer and fewer blockbuster roles, mostly because they didn’t want to risk casting an ex-stripper in a film costing upward of $100…

      STS Ch-38

      STS Ch-38 Cover
      by Fable Weaver — “If you’ll all give me your attention.” Sean Cunningham raised a champagne glass high above his head. The room quieted almost instantly. Everyone turned towards him. Even I did the same, surprised to see how relaxed he looked. Sean was usually tight-shouldered and restless, always pacing or double-checking something, so seeing him loose and smiling felt strange. I guess what they say about the filmmaking business is true. It’s a tiring job that wears people down. “I couldn’t have made…

      STS Ch-37

      STS Ch-37 Cover
      by Fable Weaver — “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…

      DOS Ch-334 Cover
      by Fable Weaver — One moment I was lifting Emily into the air, the next she was trying to attack me with everything she had. “Put me down!” she cried, panic sharp in her voice. Her hands turned into frantic, metaphorical claws, swiping wildly and coming within an inch of scratching my face clean off. So, of course, I put her down. The instant her feet touched the ground, she curled in on herself like she was trying to disappear, then bolted off the set without a word. She didn’t even pause to explain what had…

      DOS Ch-333 Cover
      by Fable Weaver — May 2010, Los Angeles, CA, USA I held the phone close to my ear as the man on the other side explained how things stood. “We’ve finished pre-production on , and we’ll begin shooting next week,” Tobias said, his tone almost clinical. “Lily Collins has been cast in the lead role, opposite Henry Cavill as the prince, with Charlize Theron playing the evil stepmother. We’ve even cast seven real life dwarf actors as the dwarves. Once filming begins, , , , and will follow shortly after, in that…

      CG Ch-2 Cover
      by Fable Weaver — "Are you okay, Caleb?" Kim sat up in bed. The sheet slid down, giving me an unobstructed look at her nakedness. She was clearly unbothered by being naked in front of me. "Yeah," I said slowly. "I think I am." I really was. My brain probably wasn’t in the right place, with everything hitting me at once, but this was the best thing that could’ve happened. Getting to relive your youth was a dream for most older guys. And I wasn’t about to let this opportunity go. I smiled at the girl I loved to…

Yet, he was more alone than anyone ever realized. When he became the victim of a horrible accident, all he could think about in his final moments were the missed opportunities to do something more with his life. One…

      CG Ch-1 Cover
      by Fable Weaver — “Don’t worry, mister,” a panicked man shouted as he ran toward me. “I’ve called an ambulance. Everything’s going to be okay.” I scoffed weakly, even as pain screamed through every nerve in my body. Nothing was going to save me now. I lay sprawled on the asphalt, half my body crushed beneath the massive wheel of a delivery truck. The smell of burnt rubber mixed with gasoline hung heavy in the air, and somewhere nearby, a car horn kept blaring nonstop, as if honking would somehow remove…

      CG Ch-8 Cover
      by Fable Weaver — It was a nice, sunny day when I drove to the address Matt had given me. The building was a little rundown, nowhere close to a big studio like Paramount or Warner Bros. Still, the long line of cars parked nearby made it clear I wasn’t the only one with the bright idea to audition on the last day. Since I’d arrived half an hour before the auditions were scheduled to start, I was already feeling a little nervous. Even so, I pushed it down and walked in confidently. Before I could ask anyone where to…
