And I relate sooo much to this site. More frequent postings? Sure, that'd be great. But hell, if you're spending that time getting the next job or writing a winning script, that's better. <br /><br /> Oh- 1 note: Getting in fights w/ Nikki over scooping her- that's beneath you, X.<br /><br />Hang in there.

Also, I love that you have the UTA List posted up.

More frequent postings would be fantastic, but I understand that only 10.9% of us are unemployed and needing to fill the time between sending out fabricated resumes to every production and talent office in the greater Los Angeles area.

But really, I check your blog every day and in true, narcissistic Hollywood fashion love seeing shades of myself in the situations you describe. I miss the Ben Silverman bashing... bring that back! <br /><br />I'd like to see more non-NDA violating gossip. I can get celebrity gossip everywhere from the bottom (Perez Hilton) to the top (CNN) nowadays, and Nikki Finke is too snarky and bitter for my taste. I'll get my business news from her... I like the take from those of us who are actually THERE and not getting it secondhand from "sources."<br /><br />Keep on keeping on...<br /><br />-A Hollywood AssistantAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7839368858765224916.post-33368740115095491032009-06-16T23:40:30.087-07:002009-06-16T23:40:30.087-07:00Even though I've been in this town for years a...Even though I've been in this town for years and write a blog for assistants as well http://advicefromapa.blogspot.com/ (advice from a personal asst) I love reading this blog.

I also enjoy reading about the day to struggles of trying to break into the industry. I thought sarcasm free week was a good idea, and I understand why you did it, but I wouldn't want to read another week of it. I like your brand of sarcasm. It's funny without being too snarky.
