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

I forgot!

by Michael B. Druxman on 03/19/12

March 19. 2011

I forgot to write my blog this past weekend.

Wife Sandy and I drove down to the UT campus in San Marcos on Sunday afternoon to attend a meeting of The Dramatists Guild.

We then went out to dinner and, by the time we got home, I was so tired that I just played games on the computer for awhile, then went to bed.

Actually, I've been so involved with the writing of the script I've been hired to create that the blog totally slipped my mind until today.

The script, by the way, is coming along slowly but well.

The man who hosted the meeting in San Marcos happens to be the son-in-law of actress Shirley Knight (SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH, AS GOOD AS IT GETS). Shirley also makes her home there when she is not working.

She is a Facebook friend and I had the pleasure of meeting her when we did an autograph show together in Chicago in 2010. She's a nice lady and a fine actress.

As a promotion, I'm giving away (through Goodreads) two (2) copies each of five (5) of my recently published screenplays: MATRICIDE, UNCLE LOUIE, SARAH GOLDEN HAIR, GHOUL CITY and BARRY & THE BIMBO. So, if you would like a free copy, which will be shipped directly from the publisher, go to the Goodreads site and enter your name. Entries close on April 17th.

You have a creative week.

Michael
