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

Freezing Cold

by Michael B. Druxman on 12/07/13

December 9, 2013

It is freezing cold outside here in Austin. Wife Sandy and I have not left the house for several days. It is that bad.

Last Tuesday, we closed out our stage space and moved everything into the house. All went smoothly, and it only took a couple of hours.

Not much on the schedule this week, but at the end of next week I'm going to be in Los Angeles for a couple of book signings. On Saturday, December 21, at 2 pm, I will be at Dark Delicacies in Burbank, signing copies of both BASIL RATHBONE and DRACULA MEETS JACK THE RIPPER and Other Revisionist Histories. Then, on Sunday (22), also at 2 pm, I'll be in Glendale at the Mystery and Imagination Bookstore, signing copies of LIFE, LIBERTY & THE PURSUIT OF HOLLYWOOD, so if you're in town, please come to one or the other...if not both.

Writing wise, I have several projects on my plate that are going to keep me busy for the next several months. More on them later.

There are also two new reviews on the Best Bets on DVD site, accessible via the link in the Introduction section of this page. One of them is called ZOMBIE HAMLET, and it's really a lot better than it sounds, and the other is THE RUTLES, the hilarious mockumentary about The Beatles-like group, conceived by Eric Idle of the Monty Python troupe.

You have a creative week.

Michael
