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!

2 Trailers and a New Play

by Michael B. Druxman on 07/14/12

July 16, 2012

This past week has been a busy one for for me.  Not only did I finish and upload two new book trailers (one for me and another for a client), but I also decided what my next writing project will be.

First, here are the two trailers I uploaded.  If the links don't work, just copy the addresses into your browser.

I am extremely proud of HAIL ON THE CHIEF!.  It is a 3-act stage comedy that I've puttered with for about thirty years.  A few years back, my son, David, and I even tried to turn it into a musical.  But, I think the perfect form for it is this straight farce, and I do hope you will take a look at it.

You can watch the trailer here:

And, you can order the book here:

The other trailer I did is, I think, one of my best.  It's for a new book that deals with the classic noir radio show and movie series, THE WHISTLER.  Here's the trailer:

Beyond that, I'm still writing my second memoir and am down to the last 2-3 chapters, but I've slowed my pace a bit because, quite frankly, I'm a bit hesitant to finish this one. 

In the meantime, I'm beginning research on another stage play that will be part of THE HOLLYWOOD LEGENDS series, except that this one will be a multiple-character play.  I'm not going to reveal the names of the people involved until it's finished, but the story is quite juicy.  And, there will be music.

You have a creative week.

Michael
