Where did the name Hollywood The Write Way come from?

1) When society thinks of Hollywood, actors and actresses come to mind. In reality, everyone is star, but those in the entertainment business - the musicians, bands, writers, and comedians deserve the same amount of “Hollywood” recognition as actors and actresses. This website is here to help give that recognition.

2) With that said…society tends to forget about the human being behind the celebrity, so this website strives to interview people who are not only respected as entertainers but as people too. Those interviewed have up to this point, held high respect for themselves, others, and have not had any major negative situations broadcasted in entertainment news.

3) When interviews are taking place, the aim is to ask questions that are not particularly asked to avoid reading the same questions and answers we’ve all read before.

Hence the name, Hollywood The Write Way!
