What took you so long to get here?

Where have you been all my life?

I’ll tell you where I’ve been.

I’ve been in show business!

Ever since I was a little kid and heard Pinocchio singing, “Hey, diddly-dee, an actor’s life for me,” that’s what I wanted. Well, not to be an actor.

I got tired of that during my freshman year in college.

So, what to do, what to do. . .

After many years as a Hollywood press agent, I became a writer…movies, stage plays, books.

Anything that was a challenge. I love telling stories.

After all, with due respect to actors, directors and other artists, isn’t the only truly creative aspect of the performing arts the written word?

Everything else is “interpretation”.

On this site you will find links to my many stage plays that are available for licensing, listings of my books that are available for purchasing, some of my screenplays that are available for optioning, plus my blog that will keep you apprised of my various on-going activities and we can get to know each other, maybe too well.

If you’re into DVDs, take a look at my monthly newsletter, BEST BETS ON DVD.

Also, if you have a story that you want told, either in screenplay or book form, I am still a writer-for-hire. Have Mac-Will Write.

So, please sign the guest book and share your thoughts and comments on my blog. But, let’s play nice!

Don’t be such a stranger. Keep coming back!

Michael

Back To Writing

by Michael B. Druxman on 11/16/10

November 17, 2010

Yesterday, I got back to writing on my screenplay. I should finish my first pass of Act I within a day or two.

That's right, folks. Screenplays have 3 acts, too...just like stage plays.

The second act is always the bear to write. You know (or should know) what your climax is going to be, but the problem is coming up with a proper plot development to get you there.

But, if I've been doing my job right, at some point the characters will take over and start writing their own story.

If you're a writer, you know what I'm talking about.

If you don't, then have a creative day anyway and I'll be back with you tomorrow.

Michael
