On Spec: A Novel of Young Hollywood
A brilliant, dead-on debut about what it takes to make it in today's Hollywood. On Spec follows the paths of six Hollywood hopefuls--a screenwriter, an agent, a development girl, an actress, a studio chef, and an aspiring producer--as they experience the pitfalls and payouts of life on the hollwood fast track. More than just a novel about the entertainment industry, On Spec is a parody of modern life, where winner takes all and the losers are tossed to the wayside without a second thought.

way before its time, this romp had some real advantgarde teckniques
love the characters, even if they are broad, they still can't manage to be broad enough to fully capture thier intended target. tough to satirize this field, but Rushfield manages to do so with flair
