      STS Ch-25

      STS Ch-25 Cover
      by Fable Weaver “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…

      Jason Wolfe

      Jason Wolfe Cover
      by Fable Weaver Jason hated his life. He was meant to become an actor, a superstar, a heartthrob. Instead, all his dreams were taken from him far too early because of one terrible incident. To add insult to injury, he died of cancer before he had even lived half his life. The end. Or so he thought. A bored goddess of love takes an interest in him…

      STS Ch-36

      STS Ch-36 Cover
      by Fable Weaver “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…

      DOS Ch-339

      DOS Ch-339 Cover
      by Fable Weaver I looked around the set, taking in the controlled chaos unfolding in every direction. Crew members hurried past with purpose, some carrying lighting rigs while others adjusted cameras mounted on towering cranes. It was hectic, but it made sense. Today was about making sure we got the tone of the show right. It had to feel as grand and imposing as I’d envisioned. “So you’re ready for this scene?” I looked up to see James Cameron standing beside me, a familiar grin on his face. “Don’t I…

      STS Ch-49

      STS Ch-49 Cover
      by Fable Weaver It surprised Al Pacino to learn that a mere 18-year-old had written such an impressive story. When Noah left the script for him that day, Al had been irritated. It wasn’t the first time an acquaintance had tried to corner him into working together, and he was usually very good at shutting those attempts down. Still, there was something about Noah that stirred his curiosity. If the boy had managed to sell a script to Columbia and earn enough money to buy a house right next to his, he couldn’t be…

      STS Ch-65

      STS Ch-65 Cover
      by Fable Weaver “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…

      DOS Ch-36 Cover
      by Fable Weaver “For the first scene,” Stephen Daldry began his explanation, “we’ll start with your dance sequence on the street, which you’ll take to the roof. As you dance, Jamie Bell will watch you from there,” he pointed to a spot where Bell was standing, “and Jamie Draven will watch you from there,” Draven, who played Billy’s brother, waved from the window to which I reciprocated. “Peter says you know the whole thing very well by now.”“Oh yes, Mr. Darling and I have practiced it a lot,” I…

      DOS Ch-68

      DOS Ch-68 Cover
      by Fable Weaver The sun hung lazily in the sky, casting a golden glow over the slightly wet sand that stretched seemingly endlessly before us. The waves lapped gently at the shore, creating a soothing rhythm that was a world away from the chaos of film sets and bustling cities. I took a deep breath, inhaling the salty sea air, and felt a wave of contentment wash over me. The sunshine was perfect for me. Too bad my contract forbade me from sunbathing while the films were in production. This was heaven.I can't believe I…

      DOS Ch-100

      DOS Ch-100 Cover
      by Fable Weaver I blame my teenage hormones for agreeing to Emily’s request. Any sane person would tell me that this is a very bad idea. Kissing someone for a scene is one thing, but doing it for ‘practice’ while all alone was unnecessary and almost as bad as cheating. I knew that very well. Still, I agreed to Emily’s request for reasons that I couldn’t fathom.But it wasn’t meant to be. As if some divine power was watching over me, I got a call from Emma right at the moment when Emily was about to kiss…

      DOS Ch-132 Cover
      by Fable Weaver June, 2005, Arizona, USAI couldn't help but curse my luck as soon as I ran into the living room. The lively atmosphere on set had been immediately dampened by Toni's scream. Everyone was gathered around Alan Arkin, who was lying flat on the floor with his eyes closed. Toni Collette was hovering over him.As soon as I crouched beside her, she turned to me in panic. "We've called 9-1-1, but they'll take some time to get here. Do you know CPR?"I didn't. I opened my mouth to say so, but then I noticed something…
