This week, Studio Reader Stan visits with his literary agent, Mischa Broom.
Studio Reader Stan enters Mischa Broom's office.
Studio Reader Stan: You wanted to see me?
Mischa Broom: Yes, Studio Reader Stan, I want to send you to Comic-Con. It’s the largest comic book festival in the world, and you’re perfect for it.
Studio Reader Stan: Really? To promote one of my screenplays? I’m flattered.
Mischa Broom: Your screenplays? What are you talking about?
Studio Reader Stan: I’m one of your writers. Y’know, one of the people who’s been giving you his screenplays to read.
Mischa Broom: Sorry, I haven’t read them. I’m extremely busy so I had to devise a new system.
Studio Reader Stan: Which is?
Mischa Broom: My fiancé, The Bronze, reads the title. If he likes it, then it goes into my “Read Eventually” pile.
Studio Reader Stan: And the Bronze doesn’t like my titles?
Mischa Broom: I don’t know. I just learned he can’t read – and I haven’t had time to devise a new system.
Studio Reader Stan: So you haven’t read any screenplays in a long time. For a literary agent, that doesn’t seem like a smart career move.
Mischa Broom: Hey, he gave me some to read.
Studio Reader Stan: And he based it on what?
Mischa Broom: If the font was pretty.
Studio Reader Stan: All righty, then. So if it’s not my screenplays, why else would you send me to Comic-Con?
Mischa Broom: Your frame.
Studio Reader Stan: My frame?
Mischa Broom: Yes, you’re the perfect size for the Klingon costume I made. I’m branching out into designing outfits for nerds.
She hands him a large box.
Mischa Broom: Wear lots of clothes underneath so it catches your sweat. I don’t want you ruining my fabric.
Tune in next week for more Studio Reader Stan...
