The Struggling Actress
So, I have been reading this
inspiring blog by 'The Struggling Actress", Lira, for a while now. It
doesn't matter that she lives and works in L.A. and that her industry
experiences are mostly nothing like mine. I mean, really, and don't get
me wrong, I love 'Wellywood' wholeheartedly, to compare the L.A. and
Wellington film industries, especially in the way they work for actors,
is a liiiittle difficult. You've got to read Lira's blog. Period.
Because it doesn't matter where in the world you pursue your dream of
acting. What you can learn from Lira's experiences, you can take away to
your acting life anywhere. It's in the way she writes, it's in her
honesty, in the way she shares herself with us, vulnerable and real, and
it's in her unabashed optimism and love for her craft. Her writing
makes me dream, and be daring and admit to myself that I want to be an
actor for the rest of my life. Thank you, Lira, and happy birthday!
