I came to Hollywood on June 1st 1994. Marilyn Monroe would have been 66, had she lived, on that day. Her star is outside McDonalds … Back then the Boulevard was awash with flyers. ‘Actors Wanted/Models Wanted.’ Casting Scams pinned to lamp posts; a clichéd Hollywood rip-off. Gilson Simoes never advertised. He couldn’t afford the paper. And he claimed he never took their money unless they had it. I, apparently, had it… But this story is not about me.

At first I figured I wouldn’t like this. It seemed a bit ordinary. But then the characters started to come to life and all the breaks with diary entries. Moving the POV around a bit. Keeping the mind’s eye moving. Very nice. It had an undertone of sex to it with a sadness in between the lines.
That was pretty groovy.
Thanks.
