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!

Texas Frightmare Weekend

by Michael B. Druxman on 04/15/12

April 16, 2012

Folks, I'm going to be at Texas Frightmare Weekend on May 4-6, signing copies of my books (BASIL RATHBONE, DRACULA MEETS JACK THE RIPPER, GHOUL CITY, BLACK WATCH/THE CAVERN, etc.) and my DVDs (THE DOORWAY, CHEYENNE WARRIOR), so come on down and say "Hello".

This convention caters to fans of horror movies, but I'll also have copies of MY FORTY-FIVE YEARS IN HOLLYWOOD with me.  And, if you're wondering why I'm bringing copies of CHEYENNE WARRIOR to a horror convention: Clint Howard, who was in that movie, is going to be in attendance, so he can sign the DVD, too.

Additionally, Ernest Borgnine, Piper Laurie, Michael Madsen, Kim Darby and a lot of other celebrities are going to be there.

The event takes place at the Hyatt Regency Hotel at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport.


This past week, I've been working away at the screenplay I've been hired to write, as well as my 2nd memoir.  It's amazing how when you are writing something autobiographical that the forgotten memories just seem to pour out.

I'm also looking to turn some of my written works into audio books, so that for you folks who don't like to read, but like to listen to books in your car, you'll be able to hear some of my stuff.  More information will be forthcoming as this progresses.

Finally, this past week, I uploaded a review for MOTHER'S DAY onto the Best Bets on DVD website, accessible via the link in the Introduction section of this page.  Within the next day or two, I'll also upload a review of W./E., the film directed by Madonna about the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.  So, take a look.

You have a creative week.

Michael
