STS Ch-49
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…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-48
I cut cleanly through the water until I reached the end of the lane, flipped into a smooth turn, and powered back toward the starting block. As I touched the wall, my teammate launched himself forward to face swimmers from the other Ivy League schools. As good a swimmer as I was, there was nothing more I could do once my leg of the relay ended. If I really wanted to, I could temporarily boost my teammates, the same way I had helped Julie while filming The Blue Lagoon. But that would’ve been pushing…- 199.4 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…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

In the end, I didn’t have to call my childhood friends over to help me out. I hadn’t expected the entire VES department to fight for a spot on my crew, but in hindsight, of course, they wanted in. “Noah.” A girl stood right in front of me, her posture rigid and her eyes blazing with determination. “I’ll be your cinematographer on this film,” she said. “That’s final.” I blinked, caught completely off guard. I’d barely stepped into the VES classroom and hadn’t even said…- 199.4 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…- 199.4 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!”…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-43
“Damn,” Ash whistled softly as he took in the stream of girl groups walking past us. The late summer air was filled with the excitement of students returning after the break or freshmen starting a new chapter in their lives. “Now I regret not coming to college. Just look at those chicks go. The sway in their step is enough to wreck my heart.” Julie turned to me, one eyebrow arched. “Did I ever tell you that you have a pig for a friend?” I snorted. “Believe me, this is very tame behavior…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

Warning: NSFW content (aka smut) ahead. Sean entered the room, carefully and slowly, making sure not to spook us by any sudden movement. “Are you kids ready?” “As ready as I’ll ever be,” I said, my tone bland and devoid of any real enthusiasm. The old cabin didn’t have any air-conditioning, and Sean didn’t have the budget to install it for the production. The summer heat, when added to nerves, made sure my body was glistening with sweat. And that was when I wore nothing underneath…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

“You seem oddly happy today,” Sean noted the moment I walked onto the set. His voice carried that mix of suspicion and amusement that only a director could manage before a long shoot. I grinned mischievously and shrugged. “Just had a great sleep last night. Nothing else.” Beside me, Kevin Bacon let out a dramatic scoff. “Oh, really? Because from what I could hear, you didn’t sleep at all. And because of you, none of us could either.” I blinked, caught off guard, and turned to look at…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

“Oh,” Jeannine blinked a few times, a teasing glint quickly replacing her surprise. “You should have told me we were skinny dipping. And here I went through the trouble of changing into my bathing suit.” “I’m so sorry, Jean,” I said. “It is just that, during my last film, I used to skinny dip a lot in the ocean. I got used to the freedom of it. And since no one else was coming…” I stopped mid-sentence as she pulled off her bikini top and threw it directly into my face. I hurriedly…- 199.4 K • Ongoing
