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!

Down Again

by Michael B. Druxman on 10/25/14

October 27, 2014

The Best Bets on DVD site is down again until the first of the month.  I think that the sales force at Earthlink is playing games with me on this, since the issue has been going on for months.  Every month, on or about the 20th, all my pages with them go down and stay down until the first of the following month.  I'm sure that they are just trying to get me to upgrade my service, but that is not going to happen.

So, come the first of November, there will be a minimum of five (5) new reviews on the site.  Four of them are already written and I plan to write the fifth today after I view it.

Also in November, around the 15th, my new book MURDER IN BABYLON, which deals with the William Desmond Taylor murder, goes to the printer, which means you should be able to purchase it by the first of December.

This past week, I finished writing the first act of my new play and began working on the second act.  I'm talking about the first draft, of course.  My thinking is that, once I finish this work, I'm going to do another book of short stories.  I've already come up with ideas for three of them.

I really enjoy the short story form.  Indeed, my previous anthology, DRACULA MEETS  JACK THE RIPPER & Other Revisionist Histories is the published work of which I am most proud.

You have a creative week.

Michael
