DOS Ch-278
January 2009, Beverly Hilton Hotel, Los Angeles, CA, USA The ballroom fell into an expectant hush as the presenter tore open the envelope. “And the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress goes to… Kate Winslet for .” The crowd erupted into applause. Winslet kissed her husband quickly, her face alight with joy, before making her way to the stage in a graceful stride. “Strange,” Mum murmured beside me, sipping her champagne. “I thought she’d be winning one for her lead performance…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

CG Ch-8
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…- 31.2 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-287
Rose McGowan sat at the edge of the couch, fingers worrying the hem of her sleeve. The mansion smelled amazing, a faint mix of honey, rose, and jasmine. Yet, she wasn’t comforted by it at all. She had been in this position too many times to pretend she did not know what might follow. From an early age she had been aware of her good looks. Wherever she went, someone always mentioned them. So when an agent promised a big break in Hollywood before she turned eighteen, she had said yes without thinking.…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

DOS Ch-316
Somehow, the announcement of our engagement and pregnancy pushed every mention of my birthday to the side. It was as if that no longer mattered, and to be fair, I agreed. Mum let out a delighted gasp as she took Scarlett’s hand, her eyes sparkling, just like the lilac stone she was admiring. “I love that ring. I would’ve loved to give you something ancestral, but Troy never told me his intentions.” She shot me one of her mild glares, the kind she used when she was scolding me without really…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“Thank you for agreeing to do a longer performance, Troy. I can’t tell you how much everyone is waiting for that,” the slimy man said, rubbing his hands together like a caricatured villain from a comic book. His wide grin never faltered as my hairstylist moved around me, carefully arranging each strand so I would look flawless on stage. “By the way, have you decided on your next album already? For next year’s Grammys?” I arched an eyebrow at him through the mirror. “Why do you wanna…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

DOS Ch-334
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…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

DOS Ch-283
We rode in silence toward my new beautiful Los Angeles home, Casa Encantada, with lush greenery everywhere, but inside the car the air felt heavy and cold. Scarlett kept her gaze fixed on the window, not looking at me. “Will you at least tell me what’s wrong?” I asked when the silence became unbearable. Scarlett, for all her natural grace and beauty, sat with her shoulders drawn tight. Her lips pressed together as though holding back words she didn’t want to say. Finally, she exhaled…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

I was sleeping peacefully after what felt like a very long time. My nights alone in hotel rooms might be good, but nothing beat sleeping next to Scarlett after an intense night of lovemaking. I reached out, expecting to feel her beside me, but all I found was an empty bed. She must've gotten up early to play with the kids. She'd arrived home a full day after me, so I'd had quite a bit of time alone with the twins. With that thought in mind, I didn't pay it much attention and went back to doing…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

DOS Ch-351
“Ryan! What the hell are you doing there!? Your job is to hold that equipment over there! Don’t you dare ruin the shot now!” Ryan felt all the blood leave his face as soon as he heard the reprimand from the first AD. It was just his first month working at Phoenix Studios, and he had already messed up a few times. He was sure that with one more fuck-up on his hands, he’d be out on the streets. “Calm down, Terry,” the director of the film, Evan Spader, who was even younger than Ryan, said…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“I have to tell you something important,” I said somberly as I sat down in front of my girl. Not really. She was thousands of miles away, and we were talking through Skype. Still, it felt like we were sitting across from each other in our living room. It was the thought that mattered. She furrowed her brow at my tone. “Actually, I have to tell you something important, too. I was...forced to do something. I felt like I had no option at all.” The air seemed to thicken between us, neither of…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
