The young man strides along Barham Boulevard, long legs chewing up the pavement. Unsurprisingly, his shorn head (already starting to itch) doesn't draw undue attention; this is Hollywood.
He regrets not springing for a limo. From Cartoon Network's studios, the walk to the WB lot is pleasant enough—except in December, with a steady Pacific wind ruffling his suit and blowing his silver tie (an early Christmas present) into his face.
Three minutes later, a donut-happy rent-a-cop checks a clipboard and requests his ID. "Mike Rosenbaum, to see Alfred Gough. I'm here to test for the part of Lex Luthor."

Author's Comments Some slices of life are more filling than others.This makes my second *fotoFRIDAY fan-fiction drabble that's not really a fanfic.  Inspired by their Week Two theme: drabbles. The photo in question: [link] (And to any purists out there: I realize those studios are actually in Burbank; and no, that's not actually Michael Rosenbaum in the photograph. In keeping with the whole Hollywood theme, I claim dramatic license.  )Update, as of June 8:  Second place! [link] |

 reports, 1d 21m agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

Some people hyphenate to work the word count; I'd rather use it to sneak in some vivid imagery whenever I can. (For example, I could've gone with 'overweight guard' instead.
And here's another simple trick: Italicizing that 'is' in the first paragraph freed up two more words. (The sentence had originally read, "This is Hollywood, after all.") Without that, the poor security guard might not have had a clipboard to check.
