“Man, had I known theater school was this much fun, I’d never have gone for an English degree at Harvard. I feel like I wasted my time there.” I nodded. “Same here. Spent the first two years learning International Relations. This is so much better.” “Mr. Pierce is very cool as a teacher,” Matt said. “Of course he is,” I agreed. “Most teachers here are. That’s why I knew they wouldn’t mind you doing it.” “Thank you so much, Cal,” Matt began. “I really don’t know…- 31.2 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…- 236.1 K • Ongoing

“Hey, is it okay if I invite Silvie over?” I asked, loosening my tie as Al and I walked inside the house. He opened the fridge and grabbed a bottle of beer. “Which one is she?” I grinned. “She’s the one with the brown hair… and that rack.” I motioned at my pecs to indicate the most distinguishing feature of hers. Al gave me a judging look for all of two seconds before shaking his head. “No.” “What do you mean, no?” I asked, my demeanor shifting slightly from happy to…- 236.1 K • Ongoing

September 2008, Leavesden Studios, London, U.K. “Stupefy!” I shouted, pointing my wand directly at Imelda Staunton, who played Umbridge. She froze mid-motion, her body going limp as the spell struck. The set lights cast a dramatic glow over her falling figure. In one swift motion, Emma darted forward and snatched the Horcrux locket from around her neck. A polyjuiced Ron, played by a different actor, fired stunning spells in every direction, covering us as the chaos of the Ministry set exploded…- 1.0 M • 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!”…- 236.1 K • Ongoing

“Unfortunately, I have some bad news for you, Caleb.” He is the perfect actor for this film. Had I not already committed to Leo, I might have even cast Caleb in the lead role. The only problem is that he's way too good. Seeing them together, I can easily imagine him overshadowing Leo, especially in the looks department. Leo doesn't realize it now because he's not looking at it objectively. But the moment he sees both of them together in a replay, I know he'll throw a fit. It's better to go with a…- 31.2 K • Ongoing

The reporters and cameramen erupted the moment I stepped out of the car. They usually got excited, but tonight felt different—charged, almost electric. I wasn’t sure if it was the shirtless Givenchy suit, or the fact that this was my first public appearance in the United States since the release of . Whatever the reason, the energy was surreal. “TROY!”“I LOVE YOU!”“MARRY ME!” A small cluster of fans was gathered in a cordoned-off section behind a wall of security. Their chants rang…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“But General Motors is considered one of the worst stocks to invest in right now,” Patricia said with a small frown. “I may not be as savvy an investor as Richard, but even I know that.” Troy smiled faintly, leaning back in his chair lazily. “Exactly. It’s hovering near its all-time low of the last decade. I had a meeting with someone very high up in the government a few days ago and received some information about what’s happening behind the scenes, things not yet known to the public.…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“Okay, where do you want to go?” I asked, my hands resting on the wheels of the Porsche 928 as I drove at a relatively slow speed for practical reasons. “I don’t know, Josh. I haven’t given it a lot of thought,” Daryl said from the passenger seat before turning around at the sound of a honk. “Oh, shit! Here he comes,” she whispered exasperatedly. “Here who comes?” asked Ron from behind me, turning to look out the back window. “My manager,” Daryl replied casually, as if…- 236.1 K • Ongoing

“Oi! Wanker! I need those lights o’er here!” A man came rushing over with the lights toward the first AD, who was coordinating the crew on set. “Did he just call a crew member a wanker?” Tom asked in bewilderment. I shrugged. “Could be his nickname or something. I really don't wanna ask.” Tom laughed and shook his head. We admired the view of Northern England spread out before us. Away from the bustling environment of a big city like London, this was the real deal. Sure, the…- 236.1 K • Ongoing
