I am a working actress. Not a star. Not in tabloids. The kind of girl who is sometimes recognizable-ish.
Operative suffix being "ish."
I don't wait tables. I don't have a side job.
I am in the club of the fortunate few that somehow make a living playing dress up.
When it's good, it's f-ing awesome. The other 300+ days, it's harder than most would think. Humbling. Greuling. Sometimes mind numbing.
But at the end of the day, it's all worth it.
People often describe actors who pop onto the scene as "overnight success stories." Here's the reality -- it's more like years of hustle + a night.
Welcome to the hustle.
I am a working actress. And I don't have an entourage.
