Linked
by
the
theme
of
a

"first
time"—usually

he

sometimes
veering

times"—these

hilarious)

paid
writing
job
was
crafting
phone-sex
scripts.
Nicholas
Kazan
(Reversal
of
Fortune,Matilda)
explains
why,
in
Hollywood,
an
oral
"yes"
often
turns

to
be
a
written
"no."

about
the
unparalleled
pitch
meeting

the
