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

Slow Week

by Michael B. Druxman on 01/24/15

January 26, 2015

This past week was rather slow. Also cold and wet here in Austin.

I continue to write on my book of short stories/novellas, but it's also slow going. I seem to write just a page or so a day. I guess I need to get motivated.

I'm sure that part of the problem is that I have other books coming out this year (i.e. the Dinah Shore biography and the Paul Muni reprint), so there is really no hurry to finish this next one.

It also looks like I'll be working with Fred Frees again on the audio version of MURDER IN BABYLON. Fred did the audio book of DRACULA MEETS JACK THE RIPPER & Other Revisionist Histories, and he's terrific.

The Best Bets on DVD site is down again, but when it goes back up on February 1st, there will be a review of THE DISAPPEARANCE OF ELEANOR RIGBY. So, look for it.

What else?

We're still trying to put together an Austin production of B MOVIE sometime this summer, but I'll talk more about that when we have something more substantial.

In the meantime, you have a creative week.

Michael
