Nikki Finke Announces Hollywood Dementia – A New Site For Fiction About Showbiz

I don't know if this will include the comic book industry.

I have asked.

But Nikke Finke, the requisite months after leaving Deadline has announced Hollywood Dementia.

My website will present short stories, novellas and novel excerpts written by Hollywood insiders like myself. After 30 years as a journalist, I'm now going to expose the hard truths and gritty reality of showbiz through creative writing. In fiction, I can be more honest than just sticking to facts. The stories which I and others write won't depict any actual Hollywood person or event. But they will marry artifice with verisimilitude into original content creation.

I don't care if the site gets little traffic or The Powers That Be ever advertise. Instead, I'm setting up a TinyPass paywall and charging readers $1 for each post and paying writers from the proceeds once a month. I want to create a fiction forum not just for my own work but for all the creative writing talent which Hollywood attracts but rarely nurtures. I will run the website as well as write for it and market each fictional story to my 265,000+ Twitter followers.

Will the fiction abel but off all lawsuits. Here's hoping.

But if they do include comics, I really hope Valerie D'Orazio gets in touch.
