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!

Let the Fireworks Begin!

by Michael B. Druxman on 10/04/14

October 6, 2014

DILLINGER AND CAPONE is now available in both paperback and on Kindle.  You can get your copy by visiting this Amazon site, and if the link doesn't work, just copy the address below into your browser and you'll be taken right there.

John Dillinger and Al Capone: Let the fireworks begin!

http://www.amazon.com/Dillinger-Capone-Screenplay-Michael-Druxman/dp/150243699X/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1412000841&sr=1-2&keywords=dillinger+and+capone+druxman

There are also several new reviews up on the Best Bets on DVD site, accessible via the link in the Introduction section of this page.  They are SPARTACUS: The Complete Series, plus the movies PERSECUTED and ARE YOU HERE.  So, please take a look.

This past week, while waiting to get the proof copy of MURDER IN BABYLON, my novel about the William Desmond Taylor murder, I not only resumed work on the next play in THE HOLLYWOOD LEGENDS collection, but I'm also doing a book trailer for a friend's recently published memoir.

This next revelation may surprise those of you who know me, but I'm finding that I've really lost my interest in watching movies lately.  Maybe it's age, or perhaps it's just that I haven't come across any good films.  Or, perhaps it's that I've "seen it all" and there's nothing that can "surprise" me any longer.  I don't know.

I recall, several years ago, my friend, Charles Champlin, the editor of the Los Angeles Times Entertainment Section, said that he'd lost the thrill of seeing movies.  So, as I said, maybe it is age or overexposure.

You have a creative week.

Michael
