BRIGHT LIGHT

A SHORT STORY

October 1921


Eighteen-year-old Daisy Briscoe steps off a boat in New York with a single dream: to become a star.

Armed with wit, charm, and undeniable talent, this ambitious girl from a northern mining town soon learns that success in the dazzling world of silent film demands more than just a pretty face and a dream. As she navigates the highs and lows of the roaring twenties, she must decide what she’s willing to sacrifice for fame and fortune.

A vivid portrait of the entertainment industry at its most glamorous—and ruthless—Bright Light follows one young woman’s quest for stardom. But in a world where dreams come at a price, will it all be worth it?
