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!

Waiting for Proofs

by Michael B. Druxman on 06/30/12

July 2, 2012

First, there are several new reviews up on the Best Bets on DVD site, accessible via the link in the Introduction section of this page.  They include BLACK LIMOUSINE, BULLHEAD and 21 JUMP STREET, which I hated, but which (depending on your sense of humor) you might enjoy.

This past week, I finished formatting the scripts for both HAIL ON THE CHIEF! and PUTZ, and I am now waiting for the proof copies which, once corrected, will be uploaded and, within a few days, the two books should be available for $7.50 each in paperback or $5.00 each on Kindle.

I am now back to writing my second memoir, approaching 200 pages thus far.

I am very pleased at how well my plays and screenplays are selling on Amazon.  I just received a very nice monthly royalty statement.

Another thing I did this past week was to create a music video for my friend, singer Cindy Robinson.  Back when son David and I were creating the demo recording for the musical version of HAIL ON THE CHIEF!, Cindy recorded a couple of numbers for us.  Recently, I happened to hear again one of those songs, "The Best That We Are," which had been cut from the show because it didn't work within the book.  However, I really like the song, and Cindy is terrific, so I put together this video that you can view here.  Or, as usual, if that doesn't work, you can always copy the following address into your browser and you'll be taken right there.

Enjoy, and have a creative week,

Michael
