Posting This Entry Early

Even though they are dated for Monday, I usually write my blog entries on Saturday or Sunday, but this week I'm posting on Friday night.
Today, I received the final proof of MURDER IN BABYLON, my novel about the William Desmond Taylor murder, and, in order that we can make it available for holiday giving, I'm going to have to proofread it this weekend, so that I can get it back to the publisher on Monday or Tuesday. It's a time consuming job and I want to be able to concentrate fully on it.
I can now announce that the 12th entry in THE HOLLYWOOD LEGENDS collection will also be available for the holidays. The final proof is on the way to me and once I okay it, both the paperback and Kindle editions should be on-line within a couple of day.
The name of this play is SEXY REXY, and it deals with Rex Harrison and the women in his life: actresses Lilli Palmer, Kay Kendall, Rachel Roberts and Carole Landis. All five characters appear onstage. The play is a dark character comedy, dramatizing some pretty scandalous events in the life of the star of MY FAIR LADY.
So, I'm probably going to be doing a lot of proofreading through next week.
More on both these projects later.
Finally, although I haven't watched it yet, I'll probably be watching THE GIVER with Meryl Street and Jeff Bridges within the next few days, and that review will be posted on the Best Bets on DVD site accessible via the link in the Introduction section of this page.
You have a creative week.
