“I’m joining,” Alice laughed wearily, still busy with adjusting her
clothing as she walked past Mimi. “I’m joining like I joined the Girl
Scouts. Except they kicked me out for never being able to sell their
cookies. They were brutal with that stuff.”
Smile staying planted on her face, Mimi looked to the seven people
gathered around the conference table who smiled right back at her.
“Before we begin, Alice, I’d like to introduce you to everyone. Going
left to right around the table we have Ruth Seymour, our GM and Program
Director; Jennifer Ferro, our ASGM; Will Lewis, who is our Marketing
Consultant; Jacqueline Des, Communications Affairs Consultant; Nic
Harcourt, Music Director; Liz MacDonald, whom you already know,
Director of Special Events; and Sarah Spitz, Publicity Director.”
“Hi,” said Alice, her voice suddenly going rather squeaky and higher in
pitch, feeling very freaked out that she really was in a meeting with
the KCRW bigwigs. She darted her gaze over to Mimi and said, “Not to be
rude but can I ask what this is about? Did you bring me here to
experience a not so gentle firing?”
“No, Alice,” Mimi laughed and was joined by everyone at the table.
Pressing a hand to the blonde’s back, she said, “Take a seat and we’ll
explain everything.”
“That would be good,” said Alice dimly, sitting down and looking to
Mimi who sat in the place next to her. “Explaining would help my head
to stop hurting.”
More laughter and Mimi looked to Ruth as if to say ‘see what I mean’ a
look which was returned in full. Turning her attention back to the
writer, she said, “You might have noticed we had you and quite a few of
our new hires working promotions at ***** Pride. The reason we did that
was to perform a test of sorts, to see how each of you are developing
with your work on air and how you interact directly with our audience.”
“Oh god,” Alice groaned, thinking of all the things that went wrong
during ***** Pride. She looked anxiously at Mimi and said, “I know our
equipment kept freaking out and I went off script or whatever but I had
to do something, right? I mean, dead air is death on radio. And it
totally wasn’t Rich’s fault. Just moving all the stuff around
constantly and technology being–”
“Alice,” Mimi laughed affectionately, “that’s not what we want to talk to you about.”

This was a great piece of writing. Everything fell into place. I adored the conversation between Al and D’s mommy in the end…*sighs* That was so sweet.
loved it! love the relationship between Alice and Sharon – you can see Sharon needing that kind of kick in the ass… and her appreciating alice for it.
oh and “I never wanted David Lee out of Van Halen but sometimes shit happens,” lmao – possibly the funniest line i have read yet!
I know I said this before, but I totally loved that you commented on Gabby’s wardrobe. And I loved the interaction between Gabby and Alice because there was affection and suspicion and all that in there and it was really dead-on. And you already know I loved what you did with Sharon and Alice.
And that suit Howie wore is kick ass hot.
Thanks. You give to every character the exact deep they need to be in danish world.
Another great chapter!! Loved the hot tub and I just love Howie in your story, he’s great. As always can’t wait for the next post.
Well, I’m sure the whole chapter is wonderful as always, but for now I can’t seem to get past this:
“There lay Alice, a languid smile playing on her lips, beer bottle in hand, and her body frustratingly hidden from view by a huge pile of bubbles. Her smile turned mischievous and she scooped up a handful and playfully blew them at Dana.
“Join me?” drawled Alice in a delicious invite.”
Thanks for the image, Dreiser. I really have to stop reading this stuff!
that was a gr8 chapter i love the interaction alice has with danas mother bless….. i cnt wait 2 c where u take the characters nxt…
First, loved the bathtub scene. Second, The Alice and Sharon scene was great as well. It really brough a depth to Sharon that I always wanted to see. Dana’s parents always reminded me so much of my own.
great chapter. love how they’re long and very detailed. (bathtub scene-nice) and alice and sharon… so cool. oh and alice coming clean w/ the gabby thing and dana trusting alice. love it!
