“I really loved your work, Bobby,” I said with a grin, sliding an envelope across the coffee table in my parents' living room. “Consider this a token of my appreciation.”When he didn’t immediately open it, I nudged him. “Go on, open it.”As soon as he saw the figure inside, his eyes widened comically. “Are you sure this is the right amount? This is my entire annual salary.”“Consider it an advance bonus for the year,” I said confidently. “You know how my earnings work—sometimes I…- 965.9 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…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

Jason glanced at the girl beside him, noticing how tense she seemed.“It’s okay, it’s just a movie, sis,” he said softly. “Even if we don’t get tickets right now, we’ll get them for tomorrow.”“You don’t understand, Jason!” Mira shot back, her tone heated. “I’m not some stupid fangirl watching this film just for Troy’s sake. I’m watching it because I’m a cinephile, and that guy cannot be in a bad movie. The rave reviews this film got more than prove my point. I can’t wait…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

Taylor was beyond ecstatic. She knew her luck was extraordinary when Troy Armitage bought her contract, but she hadn't expected a world tour this early in her career. Troy, being Troy, refused to settle for anything less than perfection—especially for his tour. He had even employed some tech companies to invent something new exclusively for his concerts. That’s why he had arranged one-on-one lessons for her to weed out the only weak link. Lessons that went beyond just improving her…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

"Shawn," I turned to Jay-Z with a serious expression. "You're one lucky bastard to have a girl like her."Beyoncé laughed melodically before pulling me into a hug. "Thank you for that, Troy." Then, looping her arm through mine, she turned to her partner with a teasing smirk. "You should appreciate me more. If you don't, I might just elope with this hunk right here.""Like hell you will," Jay-Z shot back playfully. "You're not running off with some kid.""I'm standing right here," I pointed out. "And for the…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

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…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

Studios' history,” Dick continued on the mic. “I can’t thank you all enough for your tireless work in making that possible.”The room erupted in applause and cheers.“A significant part of that success is thanks to our wonderful CEO, Barry Meyer, and his COO, Alan Horn.”Polite applause filled the hall as Dick name-dropped the two executives, who were both present. From the looks of it, they didn’t seem particularly pleased. Or…- 965.9 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…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

Bobby walked beside me nervously as we entered the party hall. “I went through a lot of trouble to arrange this meeting for you. James Cameron isn’t an easy man to get a hold of. Do you know how many other A-listers have been trying to get in with him?”“Yeah, but there’s a difference between other A-listers and me—that’s something the industry is well aware of by now,” I shot back. “I don’t mind taking a lower pay if I like the role.”Bobby nodded in agreement. “And that’s the only…- 965.9 K • Ongoing
